Talking Teens
Family Thrive Early Help Co-ordinators are running a free course for parents or carers of teenagers and pre-teens who are looking to better understand and communicate with them – It offers an opportunity to understand what’s going on in the adolescent brain and how to understand their feelings and behaviours using an authoritative parenting style. Sessions will focus on relationships within the family, communication, negotiation, decision-making and strategies to reduce conflict.

Are you worried about a child?
If you are concerned about the safety and welfare of a child, you can contact the MASH team; a partnership of agencies with a duty to keep children safe.
Tel: 0208 314 6660
The Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH) provides a single point of access to services that can help keep children safe. When MASH receive a referral, the agencies within the team can share information with a social worker, who will use this to decide what help the child and family need and whether the child is at risk of harm.
