Are you struggling to manage your child’s behaviour?
Are you worried about your child?
Would you find it beneficial to meet with other parents who are feeling the same way and to look at some ideas which may help your family make changes?
We offer a wide range of courses and workshops (during the day and evening) with the aim of supporting you to make positive changes within your family in a safe and friendly environment.
