PODS (Parents Opening Doors) is a parent carer/peer led charity that supports parent carers who have children/young people (0-25 years old) with a disability and/or additional need. All PODS staff and volunteers have the ‘lived experience’ which helps to support the parent carers. PODS is attending the Coffee Afternoon at School on 7th October 2024 at 1.45pm. We are integral to the delivery of the PINS project in schools with aims to:
- give opportunities to ensure that parent carers have their voices heard by the school,
- bringing families together to share their experiences
- work in co-production.
Our first session will introduce PODS Parent Carer Forum and discuss how we will run the sessions over this academic year and the focus of these sessions.
