About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

The Education Cafe is open to all kinship carers across Scotland. Each month our Education Adviser will be available during the online cafe to answer any education questions you have. No question is too small or too big to ask.

You can send in questions in advance or come along on the day to ask questions.

Don't have any questions but would like to know what supports are available in your area? Come along anyway.

Make sure you have a comfy seat and warm drink!

A special focus during this cafe is how to support your child over the summer. We'll aim to share low cost family entertainment available to kinship families over the summer too.
