A warm, welcoming group for parents, carers, and children, including EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance) young people aged 8–18 who haven’t found mainstream education the right fit.
We’re here to support wellbeing and connection through relaxed, low-pressure activities. There’s no pressure to join in, just a friendly space to be yourself.
Parents are welcome to come along too, stay for the session, pop in for a while, or simply drop off. Whatever works best for you.
Come along for board games, card games, and craft activities, bring something of your own, or simply enjoy a cuppa and a chat.
For young people aged 8–18 who haven’t found mainstream education the right fit

I stopped being creative at home, and it's hard to motivate myself, so I really like being creative here
