CHEXS REAL TALK PARENTING SESSIONS
A peer-to-peer support group for parents and carers.
Sometimes the best support comes from someone who’s been there too.
Real Talk is a relaxed, drop-in peer support group for parents and carers Supported by the Tesco Blue Chip Community fund, a space to share experiences, get things off your chest, and feel less alone.
Held every other Wednesday in the Tesco Community Room at Brookfield Farm, Real Talk is led by the CHEXS Family Support Team and shaped by the families who attend. There’s no pressure, no judgement, just real conversations with real people who get it.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Adults attending the CHEXS Real Talk sessions can expect:
- Friendly group setting – Come along, grab a tea or coffee and take a moment for yourself
- Themed discussions – Some sessions explore specific topics like routines, boundaries or anxiety — others are open Q&A
- Support from CHEXS staff – Our Family Support team are there to guide conversation, offer advice and signpost if needed.
- Peer experiences – Hear from other parents about what’s worked (and what hasn’t)
No booking is required, just turn up and join in when you’re ready.
