Mr Jeffares comes after much input and discussion .

“We realise how pivotal it is that a high level of support is made available when Families are experiencing change through many different circumstances. To be able to support those Fathers’ who understand the importance of their relationship their children have with them is rewarding.

”Ensuring the wellbeing of each child is of the utmost significance to the support we offer,  the statistics for children without a Father or positive male role model in their lives can be  daunting”

“ We know having regional support available means we can network and build relationships in each community quickly”. “By doing this we know that we can make a positive difference to those families that are looking for  support that is distinctive  to our organisation “
