A small, parent led charity in Colchester that aims to provide families with support and advice from those who know first hand what families are going through.

CandLes provides sessions and activities throughout the year to share stories and experiences, and give the children friends for life, safe spaces to play and the opportunity to relax together.

The charity is striving to get key activities in place with providers and sports clubs, to enable the children to grow and benefit from every opportunity.
