CHUMS Psychoeducation Workshop reminder
We just wanted to remind you of the remaining Winter/Spring term virtual workshops which we are offering to families in Bedfordshire and Luton. All workshops are delivered via Microsoft Teams video call and last 2 hours approx.
Please share the following information with all parents/carers, including our registration form and flyer (attached) which outlines the workshops detailed below. As stated on this, families must be registered to a GP surgery in Central Bedfordshire, Bedford Borough or Luton to be accepted onto a workshop.
If families wish to attend any workshop, they can sign up using one of the following options; complete an electronic registration form linked on the flyer (see page 3) or complete a word registration form (see attached) and email it to fwteam@chums.uk.com. Families do not need to sign up using both options, only one is required and families can decide which option they prefer. Please note, families must sign up at least a week before the workshop they wish to attend and places are allocated on a first-come, first served basis.
