We are delighted to announce the launch of a new edition of Parents Plus Parenting when Separated (PWS) programme, which will be available in June 2026.
Developed over the last 3 years the new edition is the result of careful consultation with many of the parents who completed PWS and the professional facilitators who delivered the groups. We also consulted with children and young people who had experienced separation in their families
The revised PWS programme will increase from six to seven sessions to allow more time for parents. The new format contains new content and materials including:
- Videos from parents who completed PWS, sharing their experiences
- Quotes and stories from children and teenagers
- Additional input on parent self-care and stress management
- Extra input for professionals on managing challenging contexts such as domestic violence, coercive control and parental alienation.
The revised programme will be launched in March 2026 with a new training starting June 2026 (dates to be confirmed in early 2026).
