ECHO, together with the The Evelina London Paediatric Cardiology Team, host a monthly online group (hosted on Microsoft Teams) for parents and carers who have a child with a heart condition.
The group is a safe space for parents to share experiences and ideas with one another around supporting your child and family’s emotional well-being. You will have an opportunity to know more about supporting your child with their emotions and behaviour, and helping them to cope with their heart condition and treatment. The group is also an opportunity to meet other parents, who have had similar experiences.
