How we can help

We encourage positive mental health and self-care in parent carers, facilitating improvements in the mental health needs of the child/children. Helping to raise awareness of child and adolescent mental health to alleviate public stigma and subsequently parental self-stigma. Inspiring parent carers to celebrate their children’s individuality and diversity.

Peer Support

Weekly Community Peer Support Meetings and 24/7 online support, preventing social isolation among parent carers of children with behaviours that challenge.

1 to 1 sessions

A tailored approach to meet the requirements of every family, combining early intervention with ongoing practical support and guidance.
