An environmental charity is encouraging young parents to join a Wrexham-based family group.

Groundwork North Wales is looking for parents under the age of 25 to join their new, free, friendly and supportive Happy Families group.

The Happy Families group meets weekly at Alyn Waters Country Park, Mold Road, Wrexham every Thursday morning at 10am.

The group hopes young parents and their children can get together for support and to meet other young parents, as they understand what it is like to be in their position.

These are informal fun, free sessions where encouragement is provided to help young families live more successfully, independently, and to thrive in their homes.

Assistance with transport may be available. If you are interested or would like more details, contact Lisa or Aaron at Groundwork North Wales on 01978 757 524.
