Great news we are delighted to report that Courtney has now started in her new post as a family support worker this month, working with children 0-3, involves, baby massage, Book bug, messy play, and we are also looking to work with families affected with poverty issues, and look to provide support to them through our family support work and also signposting, linking them up with our partners from Citizens Advice, NHS Health Improvement Teams, Health Visitors, Skills Exchange and the Village centre.
Once Courtney has completed her induction stage, we will advise on how families and agencies can refer to us, more information on this will be added to August newsletter. |
