The Gathering Room - Still Their Parent

Support Group

You’ve been holding it together for them. Come and be held, for a change

Separation ends a marriage. It doesn’t end parenting.

Whether you’re raising your children on your own, sharing them with someone you can barely speak to, or living apart from them, you’re still showing up. For the school forms and the pick-ups. The questions you don’t know how to answer. The grandparents who miss them. The relatives with opinions on how you’re doing it.

Somewhere in all of it, a story tends to settle in: that you’ve failed them, that they’ll carry this forever, that you’re not allowed to fall apart. This session starts from a different premise: a parent who is struggling is still a parent who is trying, and the one holding everything together needs holding too.

This is for any parent navigating separation, whether you’re in the thick of it, past it, or still finding your feet.

The Format

This isn’t parenting advice, a talk, or a lecture, and no one here will tell you what’s best for your children. Expect movement, a few structured group activities done in pairs or as a full group, and space throughout to simply notice where you are. No performance or scripts. You’ve nothing to prepare.

What to Expect

Arrival

Come as you are. No small talk required, and nothing you owe anyone an explanation for.

In the room

For once, you won’t be the only parent who has been through this, or is going through it right now. No agenda beyond arriving, connecting, being present, and seeing what surfaces.

Leaving

You may leave with more clarity. You may leave having said nothing at all and still feel less alone. Both are the point.

Our Promise

What’s shared here stays here. You choose what to share, and you’re never asked to name or describe your ex or anyone else.

This is an ongoing gathering, held at regular intervals. Whether this is your first time in the room or you’ve been here before, you’re welcome. Seats need to be booked in advance.
