Join Michelle from STRM Charity to explore why mealtimes can feel difficult and learn how to better support your child at home.

Food accepted one day… refused the next.

Advice that doesn’t seem to work.

It’s not always “fussy eating.”

It can be sensory, anxiety, or how your child experiences food.
