CFS provides support to families experiencing difficulties. We offer support to help reduce isolation, help parents develop positive parenting, reduce health inequalities and empower families to be the best they can be. CFS focuses on early intervention, working with each family as a whole as well as supporting individual family members and and ensuring the child's voice is heard alongside their parents.
CFS provides practical and emotional support to families in their own homes through the assistance of family support workers and volunteers. We provide a range of accredited parenting programmes and provide group programmes for children to help them develop confidence and resilience. We run Family Contact Centres in Eden, Carlisle and Kendal providing a safe neutral venue for separated parents and children to meet.
