A special screening of Unauthorised Absence followed by a welcoming peer support session for parents and carers of neurodivergent children.

Option 1: Warm & Welcoming (Recommended for Eventbrite)

Join us for a special community screening of Unauthorised Absence in Yaxley, followed by a friendly and supportive Peer Support Group.

This special event brings together parents, carers and families who are navigating life with neurodivergent children and young people. We invite you to watch the powerful short film Unauthorised Absence, featuring Emily Bruni and Beatrice Flaherty alongside BAFTA-winning actors Anna Maxwell Martin, Cathy Tyson, Zeb Achonu and Jennifer English.

After the screening, you're warmly invited to stay for our Peer Support Group. Whether you're looking for advice, understanding, friendship, or simply a safe space to talk, you'll be welcomed by other parents and carers who truly understand the challenges and joys of supporting neurodivergent children.

Young People's Counselling Service runs friendly, parent-led peer support groups across Yaxley and Peterborough. Our groups provide a relaxed and inclusive environment where families can connect, share experiences, exchange practical advice, and feel less alone.

✨ No diagnosis is required to attend.

✨ Parents, carers, grandparents and family members are all welcome.

✨ Come along, meet others, share experiences and build connections within your local community.

Whether this is your first support group or you've attended before, we'd love to welcome you.

If you would like any further information, support or advice before attending, please contact kirsty.davis@ypcs.uk. We are always happy to help.
