We’re there for families in Aberdeen, when they need us most.
We are one of Aberdeen’s leading family support charities.
Every year we provide practical and emotional support to around 200 families with young children in Aberdeen. Our volunteer-led approach is innovative, relational and friendly and our support can make a difference that lasts a lifetime.
We listen, build confidence and help to create a secure, safe and loving home environment; an environment where children can grow up happy, healthy and able to achieve their full potential.
We know that raising a family is hard. The challenges of raising children in a safe and nurturing home while under the pressures and strain of life can feel overwhelming.
We’re here to help. We listen, advise and support. We help you to reduce stress, alleviate hardship and create the space for you and your family to flourish.
We help families living in Aberdeen with children under the age of 5.
Today, families living in Aberdeen are under great pressure. The cost of living, health inequality, poverty, ill health, social isolation and a wide range of other factors are making things difficult for parents.
Our challenge is to respond to families’ needs and ensure that these difficulties and challenges don’t escalate into crises and family breakdown.
We aim to give families the right support from the right person at the right time. Our model is effective because it is friendly, accessible and focuses on early intervention. By reaching families before crisis point, our small charity can have a very big impact.
We’re here to help you with the important task of giving your children the best start in life.
