Family Matters York: NEW parenting event to support Children’s Emotional Wellbeing
Please see below a message from the team at Family Matters York about a new event that they are offering.
New FREE Event from Family Matters York
‘A Mind Of Their Own’
Building Children’s Emotional Wellbeing
Is your child…..
- Anxious?
- Stressed?
- Unmotivated?
- Feeling down?
- Lacking confidence?
Knowing how to support the emotional and mental wellbeing of our children and young people is one of the biggest challenges parents & carers face today. In light of this, we would like to introduce a NEW event to support parents and carers in building their children’s emotional wellbeing.
Join Family Matters York for ‘A Mind of Their Own’.
A single session parenting event to share, discuss and learn strategies to equip our children and to support them more effectively as they face the challenges and opportunities of the 21st Century.

Family Matters Courses for January ’23

Christmas is a wonderful time of year when we can celebrate with friends and family and take a break from our usual family routines. We do hope that you have a lovely festive season, but we also know that it can be a very testing time as we navigate different family expectations and hopes. We understand that this puts extra strain on parenting. So, as we enter 2023, join us to share ideas and concerns, and to consider simple strategies to support your parenting in the new year. We have a range of evidence-based courses coming up which will equip you with the tools you need to parent more confidently.
Here at Family Matters York we want to wish you and your family a Very Happy Christmas and our warmest wishes that 2023 brings you and your family closer together. We look forward to seeing you in 2023!

Family Matters “Time Out For Parents” Courses – starting January 2022
Lots of us make New Year resolutions. Have you ever resolved to be a better parent? How long did you last?
There are no perfect parents, but there are things we can do to parent our children more effectively.
Perhaps this year, instead of making that resolution, you could join us for one of our courses and take “Time Out” to think about what you are doing with your children, meet other parents and share stories and hear ideas from evidence-based material. Courses are free to attend and are fun and interactive.
The following courses are starting in January:
Handling Anger in the Family
- Monday evenings 7.15 to 9pm for 4 weeks
starting 17th January, online via Zoom.
