    Swansea Parent Carer Forum July Events

    As we wind down for the summer, we are delighted to offer parent carers our final two events for July which both include a fabulous lunch brought to you by the brilliant Dilly's Kitchen.  We are reliably informed that they do the best vegan & gluten free cupcakes!

    Both events take place:

    When: Thursday, 13th July 2023
    Where: Scout & Guide Hut, Brynmill
    Time: 10-2 (lunch from 1230)

     

    This is the finale of our series of weekly coffee mornings that have been kindly funded by Comic Relief Community Fund in Wales.

    This mini celebration is about catching up before we break from our regular coffee mornings for the summer holidays. A last opportunity for a cuppa and a really lovely lunch with fellow parent carers.

    This workshop will help parent carers to access health, social care and other services for their children. It will be run by a trained facilitator from Cerebra, and will be based on Cerebra’s Accessing Public Services Toolkit (https://www.cerebra.org.uk/help-and-information/guides-for-parents/problem-solving-toolkit/). By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:

    • Identify common problems in accessing services and recognise different types of dispute
    • Come up with problem-solving approaches to these problems
    • Use a number of template letters when corresponding with public bodies
