Collecting blankets to provide support for families in the community.

Counselling for your family
When homes no longer feel safe and families break apart, it can be shattering and painful for everyone, especially children. We can help you get through tough times through counselling.

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.

Strengthening Families
Our free Strengthening Families service is a process that helps you access the services you need. Whether it's a budget advisor, social worker, doctor, teacher or other support person, we can help by bringing everyone together to discuss your family's needs and agree on what everyone will do.

Women Against Violence Education (WAVE)
Our WAVE programme can help you build your inner strength and decide on the steps you need to take to keep your family safe.

Family Start
We're here to support you to give your child the very best start in life. We have a free service for parents /caregivers who face challenges in parenting their babies.

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.
