Family Support
Our Wellbeing Team are here to support you and your family in anyway they can.
These are some of the things they could help your family with:
- bathing, clothing and feeding the children, taking into account health and hygiene issues;
- playing with the children – giving them stimulation, love and attention;
- dealing with discipline and behavioural difficulties;
- supporting families where either the parent or child has a disability;
- supporting families through bereavement or changes to the family unit;
- advice on how to help with learning and homework
We also have two Family Support Workers, Sarah Allen and Emily Evans, who support several schools in the Alton area. Contact Mrs Willder for a referral form.
From time to time, they run friendly support sessions where families can discover hints, tips and advice on different issues and also have an opportunity to chat with other families in similar situations over a cup of coffee or tea and biscuits. Details of upcoming courses and how to book can be found below:
