If you care for a child aged 0 to 25 with a disability or long-term illness, we think you’d love our Parent Carer Connections group! 

We’re running fortnightly sessions across Gateshead’s family hubs sharing advice and information sessions for parent carers. 

Every other Thursday we will be meeting to talk about our experiences as parent carers and find out about what services are available. We have some fantastic guest speakers joining us from a range of support organisations. 

Location 

Blaydon Family Hub (in the Caterpillar Room), Shibdon Bank, NE21 5EZ, Gateshead. 

 Please help us to prepare for the session by letting us know if you’ll be coming. 

Find out more on our website. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

Can I join if the child I care for does not have a formal diagnosis? You are more than welcome to come along if the child you care for is still waiting on a diagnosis. 

Is this group for me? Anyone who is a parent carer is welcome to join us. If you would like to have an informal chat about the group, please contact us.
