Projects for Families
Reaching Out for Families
Reaching Out is a local service offering confidential support to parents. We provide a safe, non-judgmental environment and offer support to parents who may be looking for advice or need someone to talk to.
We offer:
- A free and confidential service.
- One-to-one support and group workshops.
- Family work and home visits.
- General advice about emotional wellbeing.
- Support for parents.
- Information about accessing services.
- Joint work with schools and other agencies.
Referrals for children and family work can be made through schools/other agencies, or by contacting us directly.
Parents can discuss their concerns and get parental support during our parents’ drop-in session, every Wednesday between 11:30-12:30pm. Alternatively, you can contact us for an informal chat.
Our guiding principles:
- We listen without judgement.
- All of our services are free and confidential.
- We respect your decisions and choices.
- We believe in equal rights and equal opportunities.
How to get involved:
We welcome young people and volunteers who would like to contribute towards the running of the project. This may include outreach work, interpreting, and community-based awareness-raising.
Please note that due to the sensitive nature of the work, volunteers do not normally undertake direct clinical work with clients.
For further information please call the Reaching Out team on 020 77906578. If you are interested in volunteering, please see our volunteering section for further information.
