Courses, Workshops and Material

Being a parent carer of a neurodivergent child or young person can bring extra situations which are challenging to know how to handle.

To help support parent carers navigate these we have created a range of workshops based on the subjects you have told us would be helpful.

These will empower parent carers with Information and provide strategies which can help.

The workshops are run both face to face and online, with the aim of making them available to as many parent carers as possible.

The sessions are being organised and run through a partnership between:

  • NHS Devon

  • Torbay Council

  • Children and Family Health Devon

  • SEND Family Voice Torbay

Below you can find dates and registration for the workshops.
