Calling all ALN parents in Aberdare and the surrounding areas - if you ever need a listening ear to share your struggles or just to know you're not the only one finding things tricky then come along to Cuppa&Chat, hosted at Cynon Linc once a month on a Wednesday.
Plus, we also offer spaces to our free ALN advice clinic at the same time. Our Welsh ALN consultant Rachel Parry is always on hand to give free expert advice.
These in-person meet-ups offer a safe, relaxed space for parents and carers supporting children and young people with ALN to come together, share experiences and feel supported by others who truly understand.
Whether you’re navigating a diagnosis, battling the IDP process or just want to have a conversation with another adult - Cuppa&Chat really helps you to understand that you are not alone.
What to expect:
☕ Friendly, informal conversation with others who get it
💬 Space to share, connect, laugh (or cry!) without judgement
🧍♀️ Open to parents and carers - new and returning faces always welcome
🍪 Hot drinks and refreshments provided
While children are welcome, please note that this space is primarily designed for adult conversation and peer support. If you choose to bring your child or young person, you will need to supervise them throughout the session.
📍 Location:
Cynon Linc, Aberdare
🕑 When:
Cuppa&Chat is held monthly on a Wednesday from 12pm - 2pm.
🎟️ Booking is essential as spaces are limited. These sessions are always free but we ask you to book a ticket just so we can monitor numbers.
Come as you are - no expectations, no pressure. Just a warm drink, good company and the understanding that you don’t have to do this alone.
