Who we are
23 years of supporting relationships
Nurturing Relationships, Strengthening Communities
Founded by the Charity Changing Futures which has 23 years experience working with families in England to help reduce parental conflict to improve children’s lives. Any small surplus we make is reinvested to help children and families. We work with over 700 parents each year to help reduce conflict within highly complex and difficult family relationships. We have provided specialist interventions as part of the DWP’s “face to face intervention” delivery” element of the Reducing Parental Conflict programme. The evaluations from this can be found here We are now helping Local Authorities organisations embed this learning and help children by supporting relationships.
