TACT fundraises to offer continued support to looked after children. Unfortunately it is a sad fact that the majority of children in care will have suffered abuse or neglect before coming into care. These traumas will stay with them during their childhood and into their adult lives unless we can provide the appropriate support. In a perfect world every child will live in an environment where they can be happy and flourish. With your help we can ensure some of the most vulnerable children in our society have this opportunity. Find out more about us at www.tactcare.org.uk

Its objects are to relieve the charitable needs and promote the care and welfare of all children and young persons and families in Cornwall, Devon and most of Dorset (Diocese of Plymouth). OUR ACTIVITIES Recently the Society helped a family in which the redundancy of the father came on top of the landlord deciding to sell the property in which they were living. A grant from the Catholic Childrens Society(Plymouth) enabled the family to weather the crisis and secure a new home. The Society also offers parenting courses to the Catholic schools and parishes in Cornwall, Dorset and Devon, providing parents and carers with the support advice and skills to cope with the often overwhelming demands of parenthood. "This course really has helped me to analyse my parenting - I am much more controlled and considered in my my approach to drama situations at home. I am more aware of the need to respect all members of the family. Many thanks" - a very grateful parent

Young Womens Outreach Project
(UK, 1159197) Browse events
YTD Raised: £90.00Young Womens Outreach Project has been running for 21 years. We work with young women and young mothers in Gateshead aged 11-19yrs. We support, guide young women through crisis in their lives. These Crises can be finding out that they are pregnant, problems or struggling in schools, mental health issues, rape, self harm, lack of confidence and self belief, violence or sexual exploitation, the list goes on and on. Many of these young women and mothers are referred into the project by a vast range of professionals or themselves. Once we receive a referral we visit young woman to assess needs and ensure that we are the right people to support them. We are often involved with safeguarding and we ensure our role is about supporting that young woman through the process, with open and an honest approach no matter how difficult. We offer one to one support and group work programmes, and often signpost to other services and professionals who met their needs. Intervention time can be as little as 6 weeks to 18 months. They feel less alone, listened to and supported in issues that are affecting their lives at the time. They develop positive relationships, gain support; they learn coping mechanisms and strategies. Progression leads to young women gaining accreditation, many of the young women who attend do not have any qualifications due to the complexity and the issues in their lives. We aim to re- engage young women and mothers back into education, training or employment.

Young Carers Together
(UK, 1159224) Browse events
YTD Raised: £10.00Young Carers are the unsung heroes in our communities. This wonderful group of children grow up too fast, often missing out on the basics we take for granted. By providing activities and fun days we aim to give Young Carers a chance to have a break from their caring role and have some fun. They also have the opportunity to spend time and talk with other Young Carers which allows them to discuss their caring role knowing they won't be judged and that there are other Young Carers in a similar situation to them. We hope the activities and fun breaks we provide can be the beginning of a passion we have, to provide regular support, over the coming months and years and to have a lasting effect by building resilience and creating memories for Young Carers. The service Young Carers provide to society is often underestimated or taken for granted. We are here to try to make sure they have the time and opportunity to be children. We support Young Carers between the ages of 8 and 24.
