Trim Family Resource Centre and SMART Project are planning to run a Non Violent Resistance Programme for parents who experience child to parent violence at home.

Non Violent Resistance programme helps to empower parents to take positive action to end the violent and controlling behaviours. The programme has proven to be effective for many families where young people are controlling, violent or abusive towards their parents/carers. Prior registration is required – closing date for registration is 24th January 2022.

An introductory one to one session with parents will take place during the month of February and group sessions will start on 2nd March 2022. The programme will run for 9 weeks every Wednesday (excluding Easter school holidays) from 10am to 12.30pm in Trim FRC, 15 Wellington Avenue, C15 FC03 and will be facilitated by Trim Family Resource Centre and SMART Project.

Please see poster below for details of Meath Partnership and Healthy Ireland’s online talk with Niall Carroll tomorrow the 7th of December from 11am.

Niall Carroll founded and organised the highly regarded ‘100k in 30 days’ campaign. The ‘100k in 30 Days’ campaign started off as a fun community based event, in Blackrock village, Co. Louth seven years ago. An event was created to encourage some healthy competition and activity amongst locals in the community. All proceeds raised (over 3 million) have been donated into  breast cancer research.

We would like to invite you to attend the session on the 7^th of December. We hope that hearing from Niall will be both a source of inspiration on how he turned a difficult time in his family’s life into a worldwide success.
