The online ‘Ambitious parent support group’ is exclusively for parents and carers from our education services and is run by our learner and family support team. The group meets online once a month giving you the chance to hear from contributors and experts, as well as connect with like-minded parents and carers.

How can I join the group?  

The ‘Ambitious parent support group’ is hosted virtually on the Talk about Autism online community. Talk about Autism is an online community for parents and carers of autistic children and young people, providing a safe space for parents to connect with one another.

If you haven’t already, you can sign up to Talk about Autism – it only takes a few minutes. Once you have signed up, you’ll be added to the private ‘Ambitious parent support group’ where your support group meetings will be hosted. You’ll also be able to speak to other parents and carers about your parenting journey and access support, information, and news.  

When is the next support group session?

The next support group session is on Wednesday, 21 June at 12.30pm.

The session will run for 90 minutes and will focus on accessing local support during the summer break. We will cover topics such as respite and short breaks, as well as answer any questions you have may have around support options in general. You can drop in and out of the session at a time that suits you.
