Parental Relationship difficulties
Work with a dedicated practitioner for 3 x 2 hour sessions.
This is suitable for parents who have fundamentally different ideas about parenting that can cause conflict.
This looks at ways to work together effectively.
To book onto this course, send an email to familyhubs@brighton-hove.gov.uk or phone 01273 293545..
Family Transitions (separated parents) course for parents who are separated and in conflict
You'll need to be referred by a professional working with your family to take part in this course. This might be by a Health Visitor or Social Worker.
These are 6 week courses designed to encourage positive communication and working together effectively when parenting apart. It is most helpful if the 2 separated parents attend a course during the same term, (you will not be asked to attend the same course as your co-parent).
To book onto this course, send an email to familyhubs@brighton-hove.gov.uk or phone 01273 293545.
We also work closely with our Parental Conflict team. If you're experiencing issues, go to our Parent relationships page.
