Join Merrin Wake and other parents/carers for an informal catch up and peer information session on Sunday 3rd April 11am - 1:30pm. There will be a chance to share stories, ask questions and meet other parents/carers through a safe, inclusive and welcoming discussion. A light lunch/snacks will be provided

This session will run at the same time as Firekeepers' Head Outside nature connection event for 12-16yo trans, non-binary and gender diverse young people - you can read more about that event and your young person can register here.
