Start a group

No groups in your area? Here is some essential information to help you start your own group.

Making contact
Experience shows that word of mouth and posters are the best way to get people interested in a self help group. By talking to others about your idea you are promoting it in a way that makes it accessible to single parents. People are more likely to come along to a group if they have heard about it from you or through a friend or neighbour.
Finding a venue
This is one of the first steps for a group as without a regular venue it’s difficult to get the group off the ground.
