Families with SEND often experience additional challenges during these transitions. ​In this online session, we’ll explore practical tips and strategies to help you build resilience, empathy, and self-esteem while strengthening positive family relationships. We’ll also look at ways to support your child’s big emotions and help you respond with care and compassion. ​Join us for a supportive discussion focused on balancing your child’s needs with your own wellbeing.
