Face 2 Face
- Local Offer
Gloucestershire Face 2 Face is a free and confidential support service for parents of children with additional needs or a disability. They offer one-to-one emotional support from trained volunteers who are also parent carers. Their volunteer mentors can help parents through diagnosis or other difficult times. All mentors can provide personal information and advice about services in the area.
If you would like to talk to another parent who understands what you are going through then please contact Angela Spence directly. You will be linked to a parent carer so you can meet and talk face to face.

Local Offer
- Description
Our aim is to explore ways in which parents can be supported.
We can offer mentoring support to parents when preparing for important meetings (multi-agency, paediatric reviews, hospital appointment, etc). We encourage parents to spend time preparing for the important events and reviews they face. It is their meeting and an opportunity to talk about the things that most concern them and to ask questions.
If a parent is still feeling overwhelmed by the information they are expected to process particularly where there are complex medical needs we try to attend with them.
