This week's theme: SUPPORTING SINGLE AND SOLO PARENTS in partnership with MOB Member Orla founder of Solas Coaching

Orla will be discussing:

  • Uncovering the landscape of single parenthood, what the true realities are and how to actually support a single parent in your life or if you are a single parent how to get support
  • Dealing with big life transitions and still looking after yourself whilst keeping the show on the road - from redundancy to illness and beyond.
  • Learning to say "I'm not okay" and the importance of building a support network
  • Having the confidence to advocate for yourself at work
  • How to support your single parent friends


👶 Kids are welcome! We know childcare can be tricky — little ones are absolutely welcome to come along.

🎟 Tickets:This event is free to attend, but spaces are limited, so please reserve your spot.

Come and be part of a morning that’s all about support, encouragement and real, practical help for your next chapter. We can’t wait to meet you.

THE MEET-UP - WHAT TO EXPECT:

Becoming a mother is life-changing, but too often, it comes with isolation, loss of identity, and a lack of spaces designed for mums rather than just their babies. While countless activities exist for little ones, The Big MOB Mum Meet-up is about empowering mums first—offering friendship, networking, expert talks, and a sense of community in an inspiring space.

“We created The Big MOB Mum Meet-Up because we believe mums deserve more — more connection, more inspiration, and more support — without barriers to feeling part of something. This isn’t just another baby group. It’s a space where mums can show up as they are, have fun, feel energised, and build confidence alongside other women who truly get it. Our goal is simple: to empower mums through community — starting with a free, welcoming space they can count on every week.”
