Launched in Autumn 2018, our Parents Support Network is a parent‑led supportive space offering a safe, understanding environment where people can share experiences, ask questions and support one another.
The group was created as part of our wider commitment to supporting the LGBTQIA+ community and allies across Gloucestershire. Many families want to learn, connect with others or simply feel less alone as they navigate their child’s journey. We provide a space that is calm, respectful and grounded in belonging, where every family feels welcome and supported.
