About Ask Norfolk Parents
Welcome to the Ask Norfolk Parents community. This is a safe and supportive place for families of children and young people to share experiences, find information and gain peer to peer support from each other. Connecting with others who are also caring for children and young people can be really helpful. This community is one where you can have conversations and learn from each other.
Most of our members are parents or carers but all Norfolk family members caring for children are welcome, as are parents expecting a baby.
The community is moderated by Norfolk and Waveney Children & Young People’s Health Services and Health Unlocked; however, this is a peer-to-peer support forum. If you are worried about your child’s health or development, please seek advice from a health professional. If you are not sure where to go for extra help, check out Just One Norfolk at justonenorfolk.nhs.uk/.
