Renew Counselling now Offering Free Parent Support Groups

Posted on: April 13, 2026

The Essex Alliance is sharing this news on behalf of Renew Counselling and Training.

Through the generosity of The Prudence Trust and The Stone Family Foundation, Renew is now offering free Parent Support Sessions.

These groups are for parents, carers and professionals supporting young people with issues around negative body image, disordered eating or low self-esteem. We aim to help build confidence and equip them to support their child through these challenges.

Our sessions will provide a safe space to share experiences, ask questions and gain support and practical strategies from trained professionals.

You can attend these on an adhoc basis or more regularly to suit your needs. You do not need to have an existing relationship with Renew to access these sessions.

When? Every Wednesday

Where? Either in person at Chelmsford Counselling Centre or online

What time? In person at 10:00am until 11:30am, or Online at 6:00pm – 7:00pm
