Local Groups, Activities & Events

Our private family forums include a home education activities and events section in which HEF members may post details of, and ask about, local activities and groups as well as one-off activities and events.

 

We are in the process of compiling a list of links to local home education groups and special interest groups, so please contact us with details of any groups we should include here. Some of the following link to dedicated websites, while others link to yahoogroups or mailing lists to which access may be restricted.
