This event has been organised by Homegroup. Homegroup is a unique initiative, which aims to work with local communities to empower parents with the knowledge, skills and confidence to effectively address modern challenges that parents face.

We aspire to promote good character, tolerance and social responsibility amongst our children. Ultimately, through the sharing of ideas and knowledge, we want to have a positive effect on family life and the community at large.

To do this, we aim to work with communities, produce and disseminate literature and deliver short-courses to raise awareness about the importance of good parenting and the duties that parents have towards their children.
