Can you help a child feel safe?

This year we had more requests than ever for support from the Family Futures Crisis Fund. We set up the fund to help families who are struggling and in crisis, when they have no other support available.

One teenager, Layla, I have helped through the Crisis Fund was too anxious to go to school. She had a history of unimaginable abuse in her early childhood before going into care. She was experiencing mental health issues and feeling so distressed she was unable to leave her room. The Crisis Fund enabled me to do an emergency home visit to give her the professional support and care she desperately needed. I was also able to support her parents who were extremely worried and anxious about how best to support their daughter.

At a time of year when children should be feeling safe and excited about the festive season, we see children who are anxious, afraid and unable to trust people around them. Please support the Family Futures Crisis Fund so that our specialist team can help families at the hardest times.
