PACT Parents And Carers Together

PACT Parents And Carers Together Suffolk parent carer peer support organisation for anyone who has a child/young person experiencing poor mental health.

You can support us using this link buymeacoffee.com/pactsuffolk We are parents and carers with lived experience of caring for children and young people with mental health issues. We found, back in 2013 that there was no support, so PACT was created. Discovering that your child is experiencing a mental health issue can be a very isolating and uncertain time. We believe that by supporting each other

and educating ourselves we can have a positive impact on our children and young people along with the whole family. Although we are based in Suffolk we are happy to hear from and support any parents who ask. We run regular face to face meet-ups, well-being walks and provide an online support group every Friday evening. We run training (Youth MHFA) and offer small group facilitated sessions on particular themes such as parent-led CBT, sleep issues, ARFID, etc. Feel free to get in touch to find out how we can support you in your journey in family mental health.

I'm inviting Ipswich to come together for a community picnic next Friday 19th June.

It's taking place in Christchurch Park, 3.30pm-6.30pm, as part of the Great Get Together's 10th anniversary.

Come along, bring your picnic, and share food and stories with your family, friends and neighbours.

This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone caring for or supporting a younger child (under 12) who may be having anxious thoughts and feelings. There’s so much we can do as families to support them whilst awaiting for clinical support (if appropriate).

Are you supporting a child under 12 who is experiencing anxiety?

Join our free webinar with Lisa Thomson, clinical lead at the Charlie Waller Trust, for practical tools to help you better understand and support children with anxiety.
The session is based on parent-led Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) – an approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours are connected – and has been co-produced with one of our Lived Experience Partners.
Aimed at parents and carers, but open to anyone working with children.
