Outreach work

For some families, traditional ways of accessing support
just don't work. These families aren't hard to reach, they just
need to be reached differently. That's why outreach is a key part
of what we do.
It's about making support as accessible and relevant as possible.
We use existing networks to reach families, running services from
convenient local venues like schools and community centres. That's
how we raise awareness of the support available.
Working flexibly
We build trust and confidence in what we do, then bridge
families into other services that they may need. Whether it's
parenting programmes in our projects or specialist provision in
their homes, the flexibility is there. So children and families get
the support they need, when they need it.
Parent: "I have always felt nervous about going to places
where I don't know what is on offer - and what they will do to
me…after my outreach worker started popping in, I got my head round
what she was describing….and it gave me the confidence to
go."
