Being a parent can be really hard, being a lone parent is not just hard it can be lonely, boring, and isolating . We are hoping to start a lone parent support group up at the You & Your Baby hub in Portsmouth.

It will be aimed at pregnant and new parents who are managing alone with their family. Being a naval city there are parents who are in relationships but the partner is away at sea for several months and mum is trying to manage at home alone.

At the group you will meet parents in the same situation as yourself, have coffee and a light snack, relax and make friends. Each moth we will have events on to help you have some fun and invite speakers to the sessions to inform you of different services that will help you . The class will be funded so it can be FREE to all lone parents

the £5000 will help run the group for 1 year inc Room Rent-Food -Facilitator-Specialists monthly -insurance
