Family Group Conferences are a way of bringing together families where there are concerns about a child. It is an opportunity to listen to the young person, who may find it hard to be heard. This gift provides the resources to bring a family together to talk over lunch.
Our volunteer befrienders make a big commitment to each child. Before they can take on this responsibility however, they have to undergo almost five months of extensive training and assessment. This in itself is a test of their dedication.
