Ormiston Families works across the East of England to take early and preventative action to create safe, healthy and resilient families who feel in control of their own wellbeing. Our work aims to interrupt the cycle of negative behaviours, improve mental health, wellbeing and life chances, ensuring brighter futures for the next generation.
We offer 1-1 support, small group sessions and prison visit facilitation to families experiencing a range of challenges including poor mental health, additional needs, imprisonment, bereavement, unhealthy relationships and child removal.
Last year, we reached 4,800 families and welcomed nearly 60,000 visitors to our prison visit centres. We work ‘with’, rather than ‘for’, families. We build supportive partnerships, communities and networks. We value each other’s strengths and we work together to drive results.
