A Mum’s Guide to Challenging the Title of Man
At this event Tom Herschell, from Find your Feet, will guide Mums through the workshops our young men have engaged with this year at PBC where we have challenged some of the more traditional notions of Masculinity. This interactive and informative evening will also look at ways of engaging and communicating with the young men in our lives. All Mums are welcome and this is a free event.
