Family Action
Building stronger families
ABOUT US: 

Family Action works to tackle some of the most complex and difficult issues facing families today – including financial hardship, mental health problems, social isolation, learning disabilities, domestic abuse, or substance misuse and alcohol problems. These issues can have a huge impact on the stability of family life, and will have a significant impact on the health, wellbeing and development all family members.

WHY OUR WORK MATTERS: 

Family Action believes that families facing these difficulties should have the support they need to become stronger, happier and healthier. With the right kind of support, families can overcome their difficulties and find hope for a brighter future.We work directly with vulnerable children and families through our services and we also support professionals and organisations through our training and consultancy provision.

OUR VALUES: 
At Family Action, we believe our values and behaviours define us and underpin all the work we do. We have a clear vision and mission which are supported by strong values. Our core behaviours are reflected in everything we do, so ensuring our charity continues to grow in quality, effectiveness and compassion. Our vision - is that everyone who comes to us will receive the help they need to tackle their problems, whether they are experiencing poverty, disadvantage or social isolation. By giving the most vulnerable people in local communities a voice, we will challenge politicians, society’s leaders and ourselves to take responsibility and recognise the real-life experiences of those in need of support. Our mission - is to provide services and financial support which will strengthen and improve the life chances of those who are poor, disadvantaged or socially isolated. We believe in the strengths within families and our approach to support which can achieve maximum impact. We seek to empower everyone we work with and ensure they are listened to, helping them look forward to the future and not be defined by their past. We can achieve our ambitions, and much more, by embracing Family Action’s values and behaviours in our work, as well as in our professional relationships with colleagues, partners and those who use our services. We do this by always:  Being people focused  Reflecting a ‘can do’ approach  Striving for excellence in everything we do  Having mutual respect for everyone we work with, work for and support through our service
