Serving the people of Bradford, Harrogate, Selby and Craven Districts

Being responsible for a child with additional needs is often quite isolating. You may feel other parents don’t or can’t understand what it’s like. Getting to know other parent carers, learning from and supporting each other can have a huge impact on your wellbeing.

Join our Facebook groups to meet other parent carers and keep informed about our online get-togethers as well as important news about local services.

We hold events and regular groups especially for parent carers, including a You Are Not Alone group for parents whose children display behaviours that are challenging. You can also join in any of the groups for all kinds of carers that you might be interested in. See the calendar below for details.

If you have time to spare, join us in the Carers Resource allotment to do some gardening or relax and meet other carers. We’ll be spending time in the fresh air to work on the allotment, keep fit and have a catch up. No gardening experience required just enthusiasm. If you are not a gardener or are new to it, it is also OK to come and enjoy the space, bring your knitting or a book.

Every Tuesday morning at 11am-1pm. Contact Becca Marshall on 07842 312719 to sign up.

Undercliffe Allotments, Corner of Killinghall Road and Northcote Road, BD2 4SE
