We are resharing a blog post from the archive today as some of us gear up for our children starting secondary.

It is a big move for any family but for those navigating it across two homes and all the uniform and kit logistics we asked our community what they do to make the transition smoother!

Sharing a little snapshot from the fab .posephotographywales of what you can expect from a Family Footsteps.

Such a great way to get outdoors, get some fresh air with your child and meet other single parent families while having fun!

Whatever the season Single Parents Wellbeing love to bring people together to walk for wellbeing.

NEW WORKSHOP!

Stop spinning all the plates this summer and Join us online next week to take some time for yourself ahead of the new term!

Parent Pause is a relaxed back to school online workshop for single parents who just need a moment to breathe before school starts.

It’s a gentle space to switch off, unwind, and let go of some of the pressure that builds up at this time of year. You’ll be guided through calming techniques to help you feel lighter, more settled, and a bit more “you” again. You’ll be guided through some simple techniques including tapping and breathwork to help you let go of what’s been weighing you down.

WHEN: Thursday 27th 8pm ONLINE
FACILITATOR: Kellie Vvind

SUITABLE FOR: Adults only
NOT suitable if: you have had a brain injury in the last 6 months, receiving treatment for cancer or in your first trimester of pregnancy.

Are you a parent in RCT?

Role Play Lane have reached out as they research their next programme...
"we're asking families to complete a short survey to help us understand what encourages them to access nature-based activities and what barriers they may face. Their feedback will directly shape the future of the programme, ensuring it reflects the needs of local families. We're especially keen to hear from families of children with Additional Learning Needs (ALN) and from the Deaf community, so we can make the project as inclusive, welcoming and accessible as possible from the very beginning."

🌿 Complete the survey here: https://forms.gle/yksqQzMaEH4NEC9c9

As a thank you for completing the survey, families will also receive a 25% discount voucher to use at one of our standard Role Play Lane sessions or off our ALN sessions.
