OUR EVENTS - Brave

OUR EVENTS We regularly hold a number of events, some of our recent ones are shown below. Upcoming events will be announced via our newsletter and on social media.

Brave Big Night In – January 2023

We know finding time for yourself as a Parent Carer is hard… finding time with a loved one is often even harder. That is why we opened up self nominations for our ‘Brave Big Night In’ Boxes.

These boxes, designed for two people to share, give the opportunity for Parent Carers to have a night in together and this year, we included some new games for them to enjoy.

We were overwhelmed by the positive response to these boxes and sent out to over 40 Parent Carers. We hope they enjoy their night in and much needed quality time together.

Catch up with a Coffee

Spending time with friends is a key element in supporting your mental health. We know how important it is for Parent Carers to talk which is why we created ‘Catch up with a Coffee’.

Caffè Nero kindly donated to Brave a limited number of VIP complimentary coffee passes to gift to Parent Carers.

We opened self nomination for parents of children with complex medical needs and sent out 30 coffee passes.

12 Days of Brave – 13th December 2022

We delivered 12 Brave hampers to SNAP Charity and BOSP – Brighter Opportunities for Special People. These hampers included different themed items to encourage Parent Carers to think about themselves.

We also provided the charities with an additional 10 Brave bags each to gift to Parent Carers who use their facilities.

Parent Carer Awareness Day – 23rd October 2022

Parent Carer Awareness Day was created on 23rd October by us to say we understand, we see you and we know how Brave you are.

We asked our followers:
‘What does being a Parent Carer look like to you?’

With huge thanks to everyone who sent in photographs which showed a real insight into being a Parent Carer.
