Monthly Meetups

Spaces where parents and carers of children with SEND, find their FLOC and connect with people who get it. No diagnosis required.

Our meet-ups share the same philosophy: Come as you are. Share if you want. Listen if that's where you're at. All are welcome.

What to expect

These are peer-led community meet-ups facilitated by parents and carers further down the path who've been through it.

An hour+ to connect with others who understand.

This is space to process the overwhelm and the hard bits you can't say anywhere else - with people who get it.

Not for you right now? We'll be here when you're ready.
