Join us for our next Chat and Connect for Grandparents on Monday 12th October at 7.30pm. 

Join us in a relaxed online safe space for grandparents and expectant grandparents in the cleft community, to share experiences, talk through worries, and get support from others who understand.

Our Chat and Connect events are safe spaces for discussion, but you’re also welcome to come along and just listen in if you’d prefer. Parents and carers of children of all ages are welcome to attend to share their experiences and concerns. Expectant parents are also very welcome to join.

If you have any questions, please do feel free to email Lucy Graham, the Family Services Coordinator on [email protected].
