Parents were keen for the session to take place with the involvement of their children rather than 2 separate courses as felt tackling the subject together would make them more able to answer any questions the children may pose to them at home.. There were a few awkward moment and cringes mainly from the parents, however the course was very well received by both adults and children.
ED RAW prides itself in tackling taboo subjects with families and the response from service users has been fantastic.
Take a look at what some of our service users thought. A huge thank you to Laura Wilson who delivered the course in an informative, interesting and fun way which kept the children enthralled.
"The course was dealt with in a really good, mature manner (minus a few giggles) and covered most taboo subjects that really all children and teens should learn about, for perfect example "Safety on the internet". I applaud it!" (CS - 22 yrs old)

FIRST MEETING OF ED RAW "DADS ARMY" GROUP TAKES TO THE WEAR TO FISH
As part of our ever expanding community activity programme aimed at improving well being for all I was delighted to take a group of men sea fishing with ED RAW chairman Ian Foster at the helm!!!
We had a great mix of experienced fishermen who were very supportive and assisted the "first timers". The response from this evening was very positive with a group of 20 gentlemen keen to take up fishing on a regular basis.
DADS ARMY is a support group specifically for men living in the Easington District and will work to improve social, mental , physical and emotional wellbeing.
As the response from the first fishing trip was very positive we will be setting up the ED RAW ROD CLUB. Watch out for future dates for our male service users.
