Family Gateway is a local charity that provides whole family support to families facing challenging circumstances in their lives. Our aim is to improve life chances for children and to support families to become resilient, confident, employable and secure. We deliver our intensive home-based whole family support using our unique Barefoot Professional model which means that we employ those who have had the same or similar experiences as those we support, meaning that we are most likely to engage people with barriers to working with professionals and services and we can also develop deep relationships and trust.
Referrals can be made by professionals from other organisations, or individual signposting is available to the public 10am-12pm and 1pm-3pm on Tuesdays at Howdon Community Hub.
