About the CPD course
Volunteers supporting families is an effective programme; proven to reduce the number of children at risk of going into care. By preventing and de-escalating issues; our volunteers help struggling families to turn things around. Volunteers; recruited from the local community; come from diverse backgrounds. They act as trusted mentors; providing consistent emotional and practical support to families in their homes every week for six months. Volunteers tailor their support to the unique needs of each family; building on strengths and promoting resilience. Support is overseen by the project managers; who are embedded within the local authority’s children’s services team.
