| Recipient Org: Description | Circle is a registered Scottish charity working across Central Scotland with families facing multiple disadvantages due to inequality, poverty and experiences of trauma, abuse, and bereavement. Originally established as the Family Services Unit (FSU) to support impoverished and bereaved families following World War II, we came to Scotland in 1974 to establish a specialist child protection service. In 2006, we became an independent charity called Circle. Today, we deliver projects across ten local authorities including North and South Lanarkshire, Edinburgh and East and West Lothian which include several of the top 5% most deprived areas in Scotland. Our work is delivered by an expert team of Family Outreach Workers (FOWs) who use a strengths-based and solution-focused approach in all the work that we undertake, enabling family members to build on their existing strengths rather than focussing on their deficits. By delivering one-to-one support, counselling, advocacy, and group work, and as part of our Whole Family Approach, every member of the family is actively engaged in order to identify strategies that promote positive change. As part of our comprehensive family-centred approach, we also deliver support to disadvantaged children and families through our Haven Project, which includes an Early Years Group Programme for parents and young children in order for them to be given the best possible start in life, an Inter School Social Education Mentorship Project that supports disadvantaged children experiencing difficulties, and a Pupil Equity Fund (PEF) Project which supports families of pupils from primary schools to help reduce the attainment gap. ?Big differences happened. As a mother, I don?t feel afraid or judged, to ask for help or let my worker know if myself or my children have had a hard week. And I feel confident that I am not the only family that would feel confident about the service.? ? Mother supported by the Women?s Outreach Team |
