Solihull Approach Focus Week 10-17 September 2025

We understand that parents and carers often seek extra support when it comes to understanding children’s behaviour, managing big emotions, supporting additional needs, and strengthening family relationships. Solihull Approach offers trusted, evidence-based resources to help – available both online and in person.

What Families can access:
Online workshops: Free, flexible and available anytime (access code: COMMUNITY)
Face-to-face groups: Friendly, supportive sessions running in Family Hubs and local venues, led by trained facilitators.
