Parents' Cuppa and Chat Sessions

Our Cuppa and Chat sessions are an opportunity for parents and carers to meet and chat with other parents and with members of the EASA team.  We will usually have a short presentation (10 – 15 minutes) on a particular theme to tell you about support available in that area or to share a few quick tips. The rest of the time will be informal, with refreshments available.

The 2nd Thursday in the month is for parents and carers of Early Years and Primary aged children. The 3rd Thursday of the month is aimed at parents and carers of Secondary and Post-16 children/young people. This is so that parents are more likely to meet other parents of children of similar ages but we are not strict about it – just come along when you can!

Please do register for the session(s) you want to come to so that we can make sure we have enough seats, refreshments and team members to greet you. Our maximum number is 35 people per session. Those who turn up without registering may be turned away if we have reached maximum capacity.

Please note: Our Cuppa and Chat sessions are not suitable for young children. We understand that some parents may need to bring young children with them otherwise they can't attend. We want to be accommodating but ask that parents with children sit near the back of the hall, or use the outdoor area during the presentation, and bring something quiet to keep children entertained. Letting young children run around is distracting for presenters and other parents and could be dangerous.
Thank you for your cooperation.
