Are you the parent or carer of a child under 5 with a disability or health issue?
Home Start East Antrim are keen to see if local families would benefit from a parent and tots style group specifically for children with additional needs, a disability or health issues.
The new group would be piloted in Carrickfergus.
If you are a parent or carer for a child under 5 with additional needs, a disability or health issues, we would really appreciate your feedback.
Please complete the attached survey to let us know if you think this service is needed!

Welcome to the 88th edition of our information bulletin, ‘FYI’ (For Your Information).
As we enter the start of a new school year, some challenges still remain for families in an ever-changing environment. The cost of living crisis is being raised at most LPGs across Northern Ireland. With this in mind, can we draw your attention to some very relevant opportunities for our members, on Pages 4 & 5, which have been organised through CYPSP.
You will see, on Page 3, a final call for LPG members to complete a short survey to help us ensure Locality Planning Groups are effective as they can be. (Thank you to those who have already completed the survey. Your feedback really does matter!)
We also have a wide range of upcoming training workshops, events, resources and activities in this edition of ‘FYI’ which are relevant for our members and the children, young people and families with whom you might work, so please do continue to spread the word…
