How do I book a place on an online workshop?
You can find the booking options at the bottom of this page, however, please scroll down and read all of the information on this page before accessing the booking page. It’s important you know more information about the project and the workshops before booking.
Important Information
Please read through this list of important information before booking your ticket. If you have any other questions, please contact us at parents@ocduk.orgAttendees have the opportunity to attend one workshop only
It’s important that all parents and carers have access to our workshops, and therefore we are unable to offer tickets to anyone who has already attended a workshop, whether that be online or in-person. Please choose which workshop is suitable for you. Please know that after the workshop you will still have full access to our other support services, including phone support, online support groups, and email support.This workshop is strictly for parents and carers with children between the ages of 5-18 only
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer spaces to parents who have children over the age of 18. This is because the content is only relevant for parents who have children in the CAMHS age bracket (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services). These ages are 5-18. Our funding also only covers this particular demographic.Please only book a ticket if you know you can attend
We ask kindly that you only book a ticket if you know you are able to attend. Whilst we understand that cancellations can and do happen for unforeseen circumstances, it’s important to us that we limit the chances as much as possible. We also have a strict no-show policy as it’s important that cancellations are offered to parents who wish to attend and are on our waiting list.The session will be interactive
This full day, interactive workshop will require attendees to have their cameras on throughout the entire workshop. You will also need a working microphone, and we encourage all attendees to test microphones and cameras prior to the workshop.Emotions
We understand there might be parts of the workshop that are anxiety including and may cause attendees to feel emotional. Please know that you will be in a virtual room with 13 other people who all know how you are feeling, you are not alone. We recommend keeping cameras on throughout the workshop so that attendees have a sense of community and support throughout the difficult and emotional parts of the day.Adults only
The workshops are only suitable for parents/carers, and we cannot offer tickets to children. It’s important that parents/carers have the space to talk about how they feel, access the support they need, and learn about OCD without the presence of their child, or any others.Workshops
We are currently reviewing our workshop materials and will be announcing new dates for workshops in due course. We expect to have more information on this page by the end of April. Please scroll down to the ‘future workshops’ section below where you can request to be placed on our notification list.
