Grandparents are an under-used resource in society at a time when children and young people face real challenges as they navigate the complexity of modern life.

The Grandparents Learning Circle is for grandparents who are looking for support in being the ‘best grandparents they can be’ and a place to share the joys and frustations that being a grandparent brings.
