MUM’S PROGRAMME

A unique personal development programme for mum’s caring for a son or daughter with a disability and / or life-limiting condition.

WHAT IS IT’S ALL ABOUT ME?

Through the 7 week programme, women will come together with other carers once a week for 2/2.5hours, in an informal environment. They will get to meet new people, make friends, develop contacts, share life experiences, develop new skills, have some fun, and most importantly, have some ‘Me’ time away from their often demanding caring responsibilities. 

WHAT WILL HAPPEN?

Weekly workshop sessions will assist the women involved to look at past and present skills and experiences and consider where each may like to develop. Developing confidence, improving coping mechanisms, building self-esteem, reducing stress, developing new self-care skills, futures planning and finding ways to have more ‘Me’ Time are just some of the themes which run throughout the programme.
