| Parents of the Revolution group |
Parents of the Revolution is a group of parents and carers who meet weekly to have a coffee and chat about issues that matter to us, from working at home, to schooling, to just general day to day life. The group offers a listening ear when times get tough and a space to reflect about how we, as a group, can be part of the solutions to tackling some of Blackpool problems. We want to upskill and grow with the changes that are being made in our town by giving access to training, co-production spaces, workshop delivery, volunteering and potentially employment opportunities. |
