Family Equip wants to promote good mental health for all children.  We offer training and consultation for parents and agencies.

Family Support Workers

Our trained volunteers can visit you in your home to listen, offer support, and give advice about all aspects of being a parent.

Support

We arrange groups for mutual support, usually on a monthly basis, where we can provide discussions on parental skills for children with additional needs.

Volunteers can accompany you to meetings with professionals.

We provide information about services that are available to you and your child.

 

Groups for children

 

Equipped to Enjoy - E2E

 

We offer the following  Workshops  usually a 3 week course, after school.

  • Understanding Anger
  • Anxiety

We organise Therapeutic  Clubs    & activities for young people.

We run 4 groups:

  1. Boys of secondary school age

Whilst enjoying themselves, we seek to help the youngsters develop new skills:

  • Gain a better understanding of themselves
  • Building self esteem and giving a sense of belonging and worth
  • Opportunities to improve social skills
  • Enabling youngsters to be successful and thereby grow in confidence
