Bernadette
came to her local LIFE House desperate for help. Fleeing domestic violence,
pregnant with her third child, and with nowhere else to turn, she didn’t think
it would be possible to over-come longstanding issues and repair her
relationship with her family.
Her Support Plan worked on building confidence
and self-esteem and together with her Support Worker, Bernadette developed a
valuable network of friends and family to ensure she was happy and safe when she
was ready to leave our care.

Parenting Problems
A lot of parents feel that being a parent is hard work, challenging, but worth it! But what if those challenges mount up so much that you feel you can't cope anymore? Perhaps you've just found out you're pregnant again and don't think you can manage another child - emotionally, practically or financially? Maybe you're finding life with your baby or toddler extremely hard and need some support? You might be a new mum coping on your own and trying to juggle work and childcare?
There are many difficulties facing families today. But we are here to help. Just call our National Helpline, in complete confidence, to talk through your situation. That might be all you need, but if not we offer a range of practical help, from baby equipment through to financial assistance, that could help to ease the burden just enough.
