Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Support Group

Peterborough and Area FASD Support Group are a regional support group based in Peterborough but offering support to families in the city and in the surrounding counties (Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, & Bedfordshire). They have been meeting for over 10 years. The support group is co-ordinated by parents and carers of children and young people with FASD to support families in a similar position.

They hold two different support groups each month, outside of the school holidays. One is on the second weekend of each month for the whole family and they meet at various locations to reach as many people as possible. The second is a coffee morning drop-in session on the fourth Thursday of the month in the café of a Peterborough Garden Centre. Dates are advertised on the Peterborough FASD support group and the FASD UK Facebook pages

Pinpoint information sessions

Are you the parent/carer of a child that has non-diagnosed or diagnosed Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND)?

Would you like to meet other parents to share your experience and get practical help and advice? We run regular information sessions for parents/carers whose children are on the waiting list, have had a referral turned down or are accessing services. These run every week during term time. We invite speakers that will offer advice on how to support you, your child and your family.

All of our information sessions are currently being held virtually online. More details & bookings can be found on our events page.
