The last year has been extra stressful, especially if you’re a parent. As we enter another lockdown
it's normal and entirely understandable if you're feeling overwhelmed frustrated, worried or exhausted
about the situation. You might be finding it harder than ever at the moment to know how to best
look after your child’s mental health and wellbeing, as well as your own. If you’re struggling, you
are not alone. We have advice and tips that can really help.
Below are some websites that have support for parents/carers at this time. There are also a range of PDF’s in this section too. This page will be regularly updated when new resources are available.
Please do get in touch with Mrs Duke if you require any further support.
