Somerset Parent Carer Forum are pleased to update you on their upcoming series of WISE Workshops happening over the next month! These workshops are designed to empower and support you with information, strategies, and advice you need as a parent or carer of a child with additional needs or disabilities.

Upcoming Workshop Themes:

  • Understanding and Supporting Gestalt Language Processors
  • Helping Your Child Through a Transition
  • Autism & Disordered Eating
  • Sleep Strategies for Children with Additional Needs
  • Understanding and Supporting Behaviour

Our WISE Workshops are delivered by individuals with lived experience as parent carers, so you can rest assured you’re learning from those who understand the real challenges of raising a child with additional needs or disabilities.

Why Attend?

  • Information, Support, and Education– Our workshops offer practical tools and knowledge to help you along your journey.
  • A Safe, Welcoming, Non-Judgmental Space– Connect with other parents who are navigating similar experiences and share questions and insights.
  • FREE and Open to All Parent Carers in Somerset– These sessions are open to all parent carers with children who have additional needs and/or disabilities (no diagnosis needed)
