PACT – Parents and Carers Together at Hadleigh Hub

Hadleigh Mental Health and Wellbeing Hub CIC is incredibly proud to be partnering with PACT – Parents and Carers Together to bring our second session of the monthly support group to our community.

This group offers a safe, understanding space for parents and carers to connect, share, and feel supported.

What the group offers
• For parents and carers
• A safe, welcoming and non judgemental space
• A chance to talk, listen and connect with others
• Information, resources, advice and support
• Refreshments provided

Our sessions focus on family mental health and wellbeing, giving parents and carers the opportunity to tell us what support they need and learn more about the resources available locally.

You don’t have to be at breaking point. You don’t need to have all the answers. Sometimes, simply talking to someone who understands can make a difference.

Next Session
📅 Friday 13th November 6pm – 8pm 📍 Community Room, URC Church.

Come along, have a cuppa and a chat. Together, we can reduce isolation, support one another, and help families feel less alone.

We can’t wait to welcome you to our next PACT session in Hadleigh. After this session, we will invite feedback on timings and dates to ensure future meetings best suit local families.

Everyone is welcome.

Handwashing practice as the cough and cold season approaches..🫧

Remember, we need to wash with soap and water, scrub those little hands, clean between our fingers and rinse away all those germs! 🧼💦
