Nigel Priestley will be speaking at Anfield on Thursday 5th December as part of the Grandparents Plus regional event in Liverpool. The event is free and will give kinship carers and kinship care professionals the opportunity to meet others in the same situation, attend workshops and hear from speakers such as Nigel, along with Stephen Twigg MP, Bernie Brown, Assistant Director of Liverpool Childrens Services and local kinship carer, Jan Brown OBE.

The workshops will cover a range of issues that kinship carers have asked for help with, including ‘Anger Management in Children’ and ‘Managing Your Own Emotions in Raising your Kinship Children’. There will also be the ever-popular workshop on ‘Financial Support for Kinship Carers’, as well as a workshop for kinship care professionals to exchange ideas and share best practice.

Places are limited but if you would like to attend or for further information about the event, please contact Alana or Susannah at Grandparents Plus on 0208 981 8001 or by e-mail.
