Events postponed this week

27th February 2020

Pinpoint Working, Groups and Events and advice from Contact

We regret to announce we have postponed all our events and meetings for this week. We are monitoring the situation and will update you as soon as we can.

We are working from home, and will still be receiving calls and helping you as much as we can.

The following news story has just been released on Contact’s website and we wanted to draw parent carer forums’ attention to it: https://contact.org.uk/news-and-blogs/covid-19-and-families-with-disabled-children/

From Contact:

“We know that families caring for disabled children may be particularly worried about the COVID-19 coronavirus.

You might find it helpful to read these two resources from WellChild and Carers UK:

The health and wellbeing of our families is paramount.

We are following the latest guidance from the Government and Public Health England, and advise our families (and parent carer forums) to do the same”.
