We are incredibly grateful to BBC Children in Need for their ongoing commitment to supporting young people and families. Their funding enables us to deliver our Young Parents Project, providing vital, tailored support to young parents across Kirklees.
The project works alongside young parents using a restorative, strengths-based approach, ensuring support is shaped with them, not for them. Young parents identify their own needs and priorities, helping to design their support plans and group activities, building confidence, resilience and independence.
Through one-to-one support and peer-led group sessions, young parents develop positive parenting skills, build healthy relationships, reduce isolation and gain the knowledge and resources they need to create safe, nurturing environments for their children. The project also supports them to make positive choices for their futures, including education, training and healthy lifestyles.
