Covid-19

We hope everyone is keeping safe and well in what are very challenging times for all. Due to Covid-19, we are currently unable to deliver our support to families in the normal way – our volunteers can’t visit families to provide practical and emotional support and our children’s groups and other project activities have been postponed. Therefore, we are offering remote support to families where this is helpful, through telephone and video calls. If you are aware of any families who are isolated, struggling, or anxious, please get in contact/consider referring them to Family Friends. Our volunteers are not trained counsellors, but are kind, friendly, empathetic members of our community, willing to offer a listening ear. We also have some capacity to help practically with dropping off shopping/items to families who are self-isolating/unable to get out. If there is anything else you think we can help with, please do contact us to discuss further.
