I’m a professional
Please note:
From 1st April, Family Action Integrated Children’s Services will be able to accept new referrals.
Counselling demands a lot of emotional energy from clients; we want clients to make best use of the service and will support them to assess the best time to do this.
We would encourage teams to hold off making a referral for anyone in crisis, with imminent court dates (within 3 months), or without secure housing until the clients situation is settled.
Referrals

Guidance
With our Survive and Thrive partners, we have developed a Professional’s Handbook, which is designed to help those working in the health and social care sectors know what services are on offer, who is eligible and how to refer them.
Our guide covers families, children, individuals and perpertrators.
