Parents' Forum

The forum runs meetings and training workshops for parents to empower them to access the information and skills they need to better support their families.

Anyone who is looking after a child or young person with special needs (who lives or goes to school) is welcome to join the Forum, either as a regular or occasional visitor.

The Forum is facilitated by parents with children with special and complex needs who openly share their lived and living experiences so that, others can learn from them.

Carers represented in the Forum include parents, foster and adoptive parents, grandparents, adult siblings, aunts and uncles. We will make you welcome, and you can be involved in our activities as much as you want.

Often in our Parents’ Forum various stakeholders are invited to the meeting for shared learning and lessons learnt through our interactive peer support groups are used to collaboratively monitor, evaluate and create our unique and tailored support services and toolkits that has made our services to continue to be effective and impactful in creating and improving outcomes while meeting the needs of people in our communities.
