“Self-Love” Parent/Carer Well-being Packs

Hello, wonderful parents and carers of Manchester!

The pandemic has brought additional challenges to our families over the past year. Some of us feel more isolated; many of us find that we are not able to make time to do something for ourselves. As much as our children have been affected by Covid-19, we parents and carers have also become more vulnerable; thus, maintaining our own mental health and well-being has never been so important.

We have partnered with 4CT Limited to deliver “Parent/Carer Well-being Packs” to parents & carers of children & young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) in Manchester. We hope that, with these, you will be able to treat yourself and exercise some much needed and definitely well-deserved self-care.

The bags will include:

• Travel crossword book
• Adult colouring book + Coloured pencil set
• Bath bombs
• Chocolate hearts
• ESPA body lotion
• ESPA hand lotion
• PUKKA flavoured tea
• Nourishing shea butter masque
• Love Hearts candies
• Heart pillow
• Hot chocolate (packet)
• Puzzle cube
• Stretchy de-stressing toy

The packs are free for parents & carers of children & young people with SEND in Manchester.
