While there seems to be an enormous amount of meetup groups for parents/families, there are none to be found for vegetarian and vegan families. We thought it would be nice to start one!

As this group is intended to be a support system for parents with vegetarian/vegan children, we ask that the children, as well as at least one parent/caregiver, be ve …

A group focused on learning and practicing emergency/disaster/apocalyptic preparedness, specifically for families. A survival situation presents unique challenges for families.

Anyone can figure out how to survive for 3 days, or a week. However, there are many disasters, besides Armageddon, that could impact us fo …

Hopefully, we can also share with each other and encourage each other as we journey through 'raising kids' together. We are located in Kent, but would lo …
