Vision Statement: Supporting Resilient Families – Building a Resilient Community
Mission Statement: Working from an equality and diversity perspective through developmental approaches, ensuring that children and families are at the core of all that we do.
We recognize that all people need support from time to time and our door is open to all members of the community. We work in partnership with the community to identify needs and develop appropriate responses. We realise the diversity of families and the complexities of family life and community life. We are a trauma infomed organisation and we provide a wide range of supports and services, across the life span, for children, young people, adults and families.
We work in partnership with other agencies and service at local, regional and national level for the provision of services and referral pathways.
