We support the most vulnerable and neglected children and young people throughout the Nigeria, Ghana, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda.
Families under stress are often trapped in a difficult situation – on their own with little money and no confidence. This can put children at risk.
Our long-term approach – supporting and challenging families – gives families opportunities to turn things around together.
We help:
Children who are neglected or abused
Children whose parents are separating
Children having difficulties at school
Children returning to live at home
Young people with caring responsibilities
Families whose tenancy is at risk because of anti-social behaviour
Families at risk of breakdown
Our children’s and family centres give parenting advice, a safe space for families to play and the chance to learn new skills, subjects and information.
The centres also help practically, with things like debt and housing difficulties, and offer self-help or family therapy for problems such as sexual abuse, domestic violence and anti-social behaviour.
