Calling all parents/ carers of boys in Rossendale.
Safer Rossendale has been running a pilot course helping a group of local teenage boys, improve their self esteem, connect them with local male role models and to improve their mental health. We know that parenting teenagers is difficult and everyone could do with helpful tips and support when it comes to tricky conversations.
Rossendale Borough council have given funding to run a once only online session run by Progressive Masculinity.
This 75 minute parental support session was created by staff who are also parents and understand the pressures and challenges facing parents in today’s world. The session focuses on three key questions:
What are the prevalent views of masculinity amongst many of our young people?
What socio-cultural factors are shaping these views?
How can we create safe, non-judgemental spaces in the home to engage boys/young men on the topic of masculinity and to encourage an aspirational view of what it can mean to ‘be a man’ in
today’s world.
THE MEETING WILL BE HELD ON MICROSOFT TEAMS, PLEASE VISIT THE ATTACHED WEBSITE TO ACCESS MS TEAMS.
