We are looking to hold parent support groups which can be run by peers later down the line.
Each group will be for parents that have a child that has experienced a trauma to share their story and obtain support from other parents and a professional. Please note these groups are strictly related to trauma and do not cover neurodivergence or other young person related mental health disorders as they are more specialist areas. You can visit the ‘I need help now’ page for a list of young person’s support agencies that may be able to direct you towards more specialist support.
A therapist will attend on a monthly or bi-monthly basis (depending on the need) and to answer any questions and introduce resources.
In time we will also look at putting together guest attendances with other professionals in this field and a skills course to help you to pass on those regulation skills for your young person.
Group’s will likely be run on a monthly basis for an hour a half from 7.30-9pm.
Whilst there is no fee to attend the group and you can stay as long as you like we ask attendees to make a small donation once a month towards our costs for materials and attendance.
