by MAB Swansea supporting Faith in Families in Swansea, United Kingdom
Every penny raised will go to supporting children & young people across Swansea some of who are currently struggling with trauma & challenge & at risk of exclusion from education & opportunities to grow into their best selves. We will build resilience, confidence, & self-worth & put a package of tailored family support together to build a brighter future, for them, for us, for our city.
Faith in Families supports over 500 children each week to be brave & understand their emotions, & pain.
Children who have experienced often multiple ACE's and are struggling with big emotions, such as anger & anxiety, which is often displayed in unwanted behaviors meaning that they find life in general, difficult & confusing. They have few opportunities to develop social skills, are unable to control emotions & have limited positive relationships to learn from. They at times feel hopeless & this is increasing as the cost of living crisis plummets them into greater destitution, normalizing the fear & anxiety in which they are growing up in each day.
THE PROGRAM IS FREE TO CHILDREN AS WE WANT TO REACH THOSE FACING THE MOST TRAUMATIC CIRCUMSTANCES ACROSS OUR CITY
98% of children state they feel more confident after going through the program.
96% share that they can now talk about their worries.
92% of children state they have learned ways to control their anger and emotions.
Faith in Families team is not only dedicated but motivated to improve the lives of children, young people, & families within our communities. We want to see children thrive, families grow & young people develop into happy adults. We know that we cannot always change the circumstances in which children are living but we can change how they can respond to what is happening in their lives and you can join us in this campaigning for this difference.
You can help us build a brighter future for children and young people in Swansea.
There are so many kind & compassionate people, together we can reshape poverty & create childhoods full of learning & laughter.
