This volunteer-run charity consists of other parents who know what it is like to have a child with additional needs or a life-limiting condition and who understand the challenges you face.
Provides a free, safe environment with activities for all children with additional needs, disabilities and life limiting conditions and their siblings. This gives parents a chance to talk and get support with their problems from others who have faced a similar situation.

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
Many of the Children’s Centres hold play sessions designed for children with emerging or diagnosed additional needs and disabilities. Sensory-rich resources and activities are available in the groups to encourage development and the groups provide an opportunity for parents and carers to meet and chat in a supportive environment.
