| Recipient Org: Description | We help families with young children deal with the challenges they face, including post-natal depression, social isolation, mental/physical health problems and bereavement. We intervene early, before families reach crisis point, supporting parents as they learn to cope, improve their confidence and build better lives for their children. Our area is ethnically diverse, with a high number of transient families and almost double the national average for homelessness. Northwick, Central Watford, and Cowley Hill wards feature in the Indices of Deprivation, Northwick being the most deprived in Hertfordshire. HOME-VISITING Our core work. Experienced Coordinators recruit and train a network of volunteers, all with parenting experience. Volunteers are sensitively matched with a family that needs support, and visited for three hours weekly, over six months. They build an in-depth relationship, offering a listening ear, practical and emotional support. They help socially isolated families engage and connect with their communities. We are the only national organisation to go into homes in crisis to take the strain off families. PLAY AND DEVELOPMENT SESSIONS We run two weekly sessions in Watford and South Oxhey providing activities, advice and friendship for family groups. These sessions offer a safe and welcoming environment for parents to learn how to play with their children and build relationships. We also run a weekly play session at Intu Watford. COUNSELLING SERVICE Our trained Counsellors support parents by offering them time to explore difficult thoughts, feelings and experiences and work towards making the changes they wish to see in their lives. |
