Website Maintenance
The website will be undergoing maintenance work on Monday 20 October. During this time you may experience some disruption. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
We run a range of courses for parents and guardians who would like to have a little extra support, information and advice when it comes to bringing up children and young people, including children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). All are run by support workers who are trained to deliver Solihull courses and Triple P programmes.
To book a course, email CHAT@herefordshire.gov.uk or complete the referral form.

A record of success
Our results are good, so much so that Triple P use our work with families in Herefordshire in their video case histories. Here you can see how we helped one Herefordshire mum deal with a demanding first child, and another develop a new relationship with her six children who were out of control for her, but not for her husband.
Free online help for supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of parents while parenting children and young people
Most parents would agree that parenting can be hard at times but many do not have the time to go to a parenting course. With this online training, you can do it in your own time and at your own pace.
The available courses aim to help you support a child from pregnancy until the age of 18. They have been written by qualified childcare, education and health experts and give helpful insight into your baby, child or teenager's behaviour.
The Solihull Approach courses include:
- Understanding your pregnancy, labour, birth and your baby
- Understanding your baby
- Understanding your child (and your child with additional needs)
- Understanding your teenager’s brain
- Understanding your brain (for teenagers only)
- Understanding your child’s feelings

These courses aim to support you in the most difficult job in the world. We know it works because parents tell us how much more they are enjoying their family life.
"I have found the online course very useful. Now, I take the time to think more during difficult situations and during arguments with my kids."
"This course has been an absolutely invaluable gift to me. It has changed so many aspects of my life. I am undoubtedly a better parent and a more fulfilled person as a result. Some aspects literally have been like 'Eureka' moments to me."
"It doesn't work all the time but bit by bit we are working towards a less confrontational household."
