Parents & Carers
Broadleaf isn’t just about children and young people, it it is for the whole family.
-

Connection & Community
Bringing families together builds community, wellbeing and resilience. Parents often tell us how critical Broadleaf has been in reducing their sense of isolation, bringing them together with other parents in a similar position. Broadleaf is somewhere safe they can share the joys, the challenges and the support.
-

Friendship & Support
Bringing parents together is powerful. Through shared stories, shared challenges and shared solutions, people relax and thrive. Meeting every week with familiar faces supports parental mental health and wellbeing, gives rhythm to the week, and provides spaces for parents to learn, share and develop new skills together.
-

Creative Events
Our events and groups are not just for the children! Parents are invited to participate in Home Ed workshops, learn about GCSEs out of school, explore non-school pedagogies and take part in all the creative fun their children and young people have! Making the most of our Forest home, our sessions are a safe space to thrive.

* Social Groups
