✨ Good news for parents in Hertfordshire ✨

We’ve received funding to run our popular Talking ASD & ADHD workshops — completely FREE 💛

These sessions are for parents who are:
• Raising a child with ASD or ADHD
• Supporting a child with additional needs
• Navigating anxiety, trauma, big emotions or tricky behaviours

We take an in-depth look at real-life parenting challenges — the situations that can feel overwhelming, exhausting, or isolating — and talk through them together in a safe, understanding, non-judgemental space.

You’ll gain:

✔️ Greater understanding of your child’s needs
✔️ Practical strategies you can use at home
✔️ Reassurance that you’re not alone

👉 To book your free place, check the flyer or click the Eventbrite link in our bio - look for our Talking ASD & ADHD Collection.

📩 Spaces are limited, so book early.

Did you know the #1 thing young people say about adults is: "They just don't listen"? 🙊

It’s heartbreaking to hear, especially when as parents, we feel like we spend our whole day talking, explaining, and repeating ourselves!

When we feel ignored and they feel misunderstood, the house becomes a battleground. But what if the secret to getting them to listen to you actually starts with how we listen to them?

Join our Supporting Links Bitesize Workshop on Thursday, May 7th, where we go beyond the "shouting matches" to help you rebuild that connection.

What’s on the agenda?

👂 Understanding why they "shut down" or tune us out.

👂 The power of the "Small Stuff"—and why it’s the key to the big stuff.

👂 Practical "how, when, and where" tips to get them talking.

Whether you're dealing with a quiet little one or a defiant pre-teen/teen, these tools work. 🛠️

📍 Where: Online via Zoom

⏰ When: Thursday, May 7th | 7:15 PM – 8:15 PM

🎟️ Tickets: £12.50 (🎥 Recording sent to everyone - watch in your own time!)

Exclusively for parents and carers at The Beacon School.

"Why do I have to repeat myself 100 times?!" 😫 vs. "You just don't listen!" 😤

It’s the #1 complaint on both sides of the parenting fence. We feel ignored, and our children feel misunderstood. The result? Constant conflict and a very loud house.

Our next Supporting Links Bitesize Workshop is designed to break this cycle. We’ll help you understand the "why" behind the wall of silence and give you practical tools to get your kids listening (and talking!).

We’ll explore:

✅ The "Small Stuff" vs. the "Big Stuff" (and why both matter).
✅ How active listening actually reduces daily conflict.
✅ The best time and place to start a conversation.

📍 Where: Online via Zoom
⏰ When: Thursday, May 7th | 7:15 PM – 8:15 PM
🎟️ Tickets: £12.50 (🎥Recording included if you can't make it live!)

Exclusively for parents and carers at The Beacon School.

Parenting doesn’t always look like the shiny, smiling photos we scroll past.
Some days are messy, loud, tearful, or just… hard.
And that’s okay.
Small changes can make big differences over time — and you don’t have to do it alone.
We’re here to support you through the real moments, not the filtered ones.

"This is such a big issue in our house... I am so glad I came!"

The feedback from our last session says it all. 👆 Technology is the biggest challenge for modern parents, but it doesn't have to be a constant source of stress.

Join us on Monday, May 11th (7:15 PM) for an exploration of the "Why" behind the screen and the "How" of managing it.

Whether your child is in Reception or Year 13, it’s never too early (or too late) to reset your family’s relationship with technology.
