Preparing For Adulthood - What does it means for parent carers?

Dudley Disability Service and the Carers Hub would like to invite parent carers of young people aged 14 – 25 years to an engagement session to explore what ‘Preparing for Adulthood’ means to them.

This is an opportunity for parent carers to:

• share their concerns and challenges during this period

• understand more about how moving to Adult Services may impact them as a parent carer

• find out about their rights and support available as a carer

We would like to understand:

• What challenges do you find in negotiating the transition pathway, what are your fears and is there anything you do not understand.

• What do you need that would make the transition smoother and how can we provide that i.e. social care, people, services, community etc.

Thursday 15th June 2023, 10am – 12pm

Brett Young Carers hub, Old Hawne Lane, Halesowen, B63 3TB

Refreshments provided.

Places are limited so please book via Eventbrite.

This is a pilot session, we hope to offer more workshops to support parent carers through the 'Preparing for Adulthood' journey. If you would like to know about future workshops, please contact the carers hub.
