#WednesdayWebcast

Each Wednesday we are joined live on Facebook and Twitter by a Special Guest, as part of our Wednesday Webcast series - check out previous Wednesday webcasts below.

These launched as a result of Covid-19, and of course, there being a lack of social interaction for all parents and carers in our community. 

We try and cover the relevant issues that we are all facing - and we do this live so that you can interact, comment, ask questions and join us for a bit of a cheer up! 

These are absolutely FREE to join, we believe that everyone should be able to access support for as little cost as possible or FREE of charge. 

So, join us each Wednesday at 8pm on Facebook or Twitter
