Brighter Days Ahead CIC Befriending Service
A community Befriending service available to parents and carers who are currently working alongside social care. We provide 1:1 support to any individual who would benefit from a non-judgemental, safe space to share worries, concerns and goals over a cup of tea and a friendly chat.
We will be a listening ear and will work alongside individuals to support positive changes and outcomes.
Befriending services can take place in the home, out in the community or even a walk and talk, wherever feels safe and appropriate for the individual.
We will advocate for parents/carers, provide a link between them and social care professionals and will adapt our support to meet need as identified by the parent/carer.
We will deliver group/peer support in community settings. Peers will support each other whilst sharing good practice, tips and advice over refreshments whilst engaging in friendly chat and craft activities.
We aim to empower parents/carers by demonstrating the benefits of healthy relationships.
Families working alongside social care are welcome to access this befriending support to share any difficulties, to think about their desired outcomes, to plan for a positive future and to reduce feelings of isolation.
