A nurture group for Muslim SEND parents running in St Paul's on Thursday mornings 9.30-11am (arrive anytime from 9am).

This group is for Muslim parents of children with additional needs (diagnosed or undiagnosed) of any age.

The journey of parenting a neurodivergent or disabled child can be lonely, but by coming together with others who get it we can find strength, wisdom and the relief of feeling understood.

We gather parent carers into small supportive communities called nurture groups. We have 8 group sessions with a break for half term. Once the course has finished, the group can continue as they wish - meeting up, attending our monthly gatherings, supporting each other via WhatsApp, or even getting together with your kids.

Feedback from previous participants

'Poppy and Naomi are amazing. I love them! We all laughed and cried our way through the sessions and learned a lot. If you are thinking of attending then do so! You won’t regret it!’

‘I have learned so much, more than I ever expected, and I’ve come away with an amazing group of friends who just ‘get it’

'100%, I am in a very different place on my journey now and feel a glimmer of hope for mine and my families future and knowing that it will be hard but we are not alone'

'Amazing hosts and wonderful Mum's who attended, the feeling of ultimate acceptance and understanding from all'

'What would I say to others? DO IT!!!! I have recommended this group to other parents that I know. I have gained so much from this and am so sad to see it end.'

'I would highly recommend the nurture group to help you feel more connected, understand all your complex emotions are valued and feel more control of the situation and your response to it.'

'Please do a Murmurations group...it's invaluable. It has helped make my considerable load feel a bit lighter.'

Cancellations

Whilst this course is payment by donation, please be aware that it does cost us money to run and the places are very sought-after – we have waiting lists for each course. We would therefore ask that if you need to cancel, please give us as much notice as possible, ideally at least one week, so that we can have time to offer the place to another parent. A refund will only be issued (minus the Eventbrite fee) if at least 7 days notice is given.
