LOOKING AFTER THE FAMILY – LOOKING AFTER ME

General aims of these sessions:

A seven week programme to support parents who may find it difficult to cope running a home. An element of cookery is built into each class to encourage attendance. Two tutors will deliver each session to support the skills of the participant and their ability to cope with their situation. There are separate handouts from various agencies e.g. MABS and HSE to supplement classes. Classes will always include a cookery session and a discussion. A number of topics will be offered to participants so that they choose the class content.
