Welcare is a family support charity working with families and children up to the age of 13 in South London and East Surrey.
The focus of our work is to provide practical and emotional support and advice, individual one-to-one work and group work programmes. We work alongside parents and carers helping them use their strengths and skills to nurture secure and confident children.
Our services are driven by our Christian values, and we work with those of all faiths and none; our sole aim is to help those in greatest need.
People we’ve helped
Following a recommendation from the Family Courts, Mark referred himself to the Welcare Caring Dads programme because he wanted to learn more about abuse, abusive relationships and how to address issues in relationships, as well as get support to improve his relationship with his children and enable him to become a better father.
The family were referred to Welcare by school as parents were struggling to manage the behaviour of Erin (8) and Tom (5) and this was having a significant impact on the whole family.
Nicole and her daughter Chloe were referred by Lambeth Children’s Social Care due to multiple complexities around communication, Chloe’s physical and emotional wellbeing, and Nicole struggling to navigate parenting of Chloe after multiple breakdowns in their relationship.
