On Friday some of our women met with @HaltonBC to talk about the new Family Hubs. We discussed the experiences they’ve had with different services during pregnancy, birth & removals as well as possible improvements. We are so proud of the women for making their voices heard.
Five women sat round a table. In the middle of the table are sheets of paper with a road map drawn in the middle. There are different thoughts and feelings written around the road to describe how they felt during this stage of their journey.

This #FeedbackFriday we are sharing some feedback from a Social Worker about one of our women. We keep our women’s children at the centre of the work we do and work with many of them on improvising their relationship with their children. #TheDifferenceARelationshipMakes
Feedback Friday “Since working with Pause we have seen a significant improvement with commitment and engagement during contact with her child. Where there has previously been struggles with attending contact, she has now not missed a single contact. She engages well with social workers and the family support worker and regularly asks the foster cater for updates.” Social Worker for a Pause Graduate

As part of our Christmas packs this year we included a Penny Pinching Guide, inspired by @pauserotherham. With the cost of living increasing, many women have expressed concerns about their finances. It includes: useful contacts, meal guides, budget shopping lists & heating tips.

There are many different ways in which you can support a survivor but the first thing to do is believe her and make sure she knows she’s not alone. bit.ly/3boHtrl

Many of our women find Christmas difficult as they feel lonely. This year as part of our Christmas Countdown, we have been getting the women to do some self care activities with our elves. Today they are thinking about @dr_treisman exercise on Happiness, Joy & Excitement.
