Proud to be Mums
are a new lesbian parenting support group. We meet up on the last Sunday of each month in Cardiff. We are a social group of lesbians who have children and also lesbians who are trying to become mums - we meet for coffee and a chat or for a stroll around the park etc with our children. We are a supportive network - and one of the major aims why we set up the group is so that our children can have a support network/community - so our children can see that there are many other children who have two mummies. website
