Parenting peer support group 'circles'
If you are a parent or care giver to a child or young person and supporting them with their mental health, you may feel alone at times and need some support. Did you know peer support from others who are experiencing similar situations can help with increasing confidence and learning new skills like coping with challenges? We at West Sussex Mind know how vital it is for people to talk and share their experiences, so we have started Peer Support Group ‘Circles’ across the county, where you can meet the team and other parents, all with lived experience, who can provide some much needed empathy and understanding
The parenting service at West Sussex Mind has lots more to offer
- Peer Support Groups both during the day (both in person and on-line) and evening (on-line)
- Monthly ‘Expert by Experience’ Guest Speaker Zoom evening sessions, i.e. Self-Harm, EBSA, Autism and mental health, Masking, Supporting siblings and more . . .
- 1:1 sessions with a Peer Support Worker (who has lived and professional experience). These are in blocks of three and can be delivered at a time convenient for you
- Closed Facebook group; regular newsletters and access to training, e-learning and webinars (on the West Sussex Mind website)
