Northumberland Grandparents Support Group




Introduction
The main purpose of my group, apart from providing support to other grandparents, is to have enshrined in UK law for grandchildren to have the right to a relationship with their grandparents should they wish to do so, this right should not be taken way from them; it is abuse in its worst form.
Facts
1 adult in 3 over the age of 50 is a grandparent.
1 in 3 working mothers have help from grandparents.
Almost 2/3 of all grandparents look after their grandchildren regularly.
Our Mission
“I hope, in time and due to the size of Northumberland, that the group will spread North and West of the county. I should also like to invite speakers to my group to educate and disseminate valuable information to those grandparents who attend my sessions.”
