"Knowing I'm not alone really helps. I feel supported."

About: Parent Support Link

(as a parent/guardian),

I learnt a lot about my responses. How to take care of myself whilst being supportive to another.

It felt good to have a place to go and talk over issues one to one, with an experienced counsellor, also attending groups with other parents was valuable.

Knowing I'm not alone really helps. I feel supported.
