The Parent Pod Is Back: An Evening of Support for Parents & Guardians

A supportive space for parents and guardians of young people aged 16–24 facing barriers to learning or employment

Stepping Stones NI is pleased to welcome parents and guardians to the return of The Parent Pod on Wednesday 3rd December from 6.00pm to 7.30pm in our Youth Lounge at Antrim Street, Lisburn.

The Parent Pod is a relaxed, welcoming space for those supporting young people aged 16–24 who may be experiencing barriers to learning, training, or employment. We understand the important role parents and guardians play in helping young people navigate these challenges, and this session has been created to offer meaningful support, connection and information.

During the evening, attendees will have the opportunity to meet others with shared experiences, exchange practical advice, explore signposting options, and speak openly in a supportive environment. Whether you are looking for guidance, reassurance, or simply a chance to connect with others, The Parent Pod provides a space where you can feel heard and supported.
