Support Group Meetings
These meetings are an opportunity to chat with other families in similar situations over a cuppa! It is a good place to ask for advice about anything that is worrying you, with the group or on a 1:1 basis. There is never any pressure to talk, it’s fine to just sit and listen. We have meetings in Shirley, Sholing, Thornhill and from Autumn 2024 Millbrook - check the dates section for more details.
Evening Support Group
