Join our panel as we discuss the joys and challenges of raising children in multi-generational families at a time of rapid change.

Grandparenting can be a wonderful time of being with family and building a relationship with grandchildren. But what happens when parents and grandparents have different ideas about how the job is to be done?

No need to book. Just turn up.
