Social Work Support
We have trained and experienced family workers at all of our Family Works sites to walk alongside families and help them make positive, lasting changes.

The Incredible Years
Parenting is probably one of the hardest jobs around, but few people have any training for it. If you're interested in learning more about being a better parent, The Incredible Years programme could be for you.

Parenting in Prison
We're here to support parents improve their parenting skills while they are in prison, and to communicate better with their children.

Counselling for children and young people
Are you concerned about things your child may have seen or experienced? We provide free counselling for children and young people and their families who are affected by abuse of any kind.

Strengthening Step-Families
We offer a Strengthening Step-families group programme to help parents understand the unique dynamics of their new family and how the changes affect each family member.
