Intercultural Programme at Drummond Street Relationship Centre
Drummond Street Relationship Centre provides an opportunity for you to explore the difficulties within your family relationships and constraints in adjusting to cross-cultural marriages.
Groups & Seminars
Some people like to attend groups and discuss the issues that are important to them with others going through similar experiences. Some people like to attend groups as a way of complimenting the work they are doing with counsellors individually or in a couple. Some people like group work because they enjoy getting together and meeting different people. Some people just want to try something new!
