Parent workshops and family friendly events

Our Wales workshops include topics such as sleep, encouraging positive behaviour, and money and benefits advice. Our workshops are delivered both face-to-face and online.

We run free and accessible family-friendly events – for all our Wales events, take a look at our Eventbrite page

Contact also runs lots of online events for families and parent-carers, you can view them on our main workshops and family events page.

Policy and campaigns

We work with partners and central government in Wales to make sure families of disabled children get a fair deal in government policies.

And we work with organisations, social services, education and health agencies across Wales to make sure families with disabled children are consulted on local policy and practice.
