What the service is
Our family wellbeing service can provide support for a wide range of issues which may be affecting you or your family.
Our aim is to listen to you and offer support with the challenges of being a parent, such as:
- worries you have about any changes of circumstances for you and your children
- bereavement and loss
- emotional and mental health difficulties
- financial stress
- many other aspects of family life.
What support we provide
We aim to provide the right help at the right time for parents and families to stop issues getting worse.
By talking, listening and engaging with you, we offer free, non-judgemental and responsive support.
This could mean:
- providing or arranging practical help or assistance
- carrying out an initial assessment to help identify what support would work best for you and your family
- putting you in contact with other services or organisations like the NHS, money advice, or counselling.
We work in partnership with:
- Engage Renfrewshire
- Youth Inspired
- Home Start
- KLAS Care
- Active Communities
- Brick Lane Paisley.
