Story

Circle supports families to create stable and supportive environments that give their children the best possible start in life.

Children growing up in the poorest parts of Scotland have to cope with parental substance use, parental imprisonment, domestic abuse, trauma and loss. Their daily life can include social isolation, shame and fundamental needs like food, clothing and a safe home being unmet. Without the right support their situation can lead to significant long term problems with both their physical and mental health.

Circle understands that all parents want to give their children the love, attention and support they need and deserve but for a variety of reasons they are experiencing difficulties. Our Family Outreach Workers give these families an opportunity to talk, to highlight and build on the strengths they already have whilst being supported to get help with any specific problems they are going through.

"I would have been at rock bottom without Circle. I feel I have been given a better foundation to be a parent and have a happier life now." A Parent's feedback after being supported by Circle.

"Circle helped mum go to school and sort out issues like bullying and struggling to socialise. Also got me to young carers. Helped mum with going to appointments that she struggled to go to on her own." A Child's feedback after we supported them and their family.

You make turnarounds like this possible. Without your support Circle can't reach the number of children and families that need our support.

Thank You
