Family Support Update

Welcome back to the second half of our Autumn Term.  Just a brief update on what support is available from The Family Support Team at The Dales.

Unfortunately, due to the current situation we have been unable to offer our normal parent/carers activities and meetings.  However, Glynis, Tracy (Blythdale)  and Demi  (Ashdale) are available to talk at any time.

We wanted to share some support that is available to families  and with another lockdown looming, these are certainly unsettled and worrying times.  We all want to work together to ensure that our children and families are supported.

Greggs

We already have support from Greggs to continue to provide breakfast for all of our children in school.  We now have access to the Greggs Hardship Grant, and if you would like further information about this, then please contact us.

Blyth Food Bank are also accepting referrals for families in need, and we can do this on your behalf.

(We are also looking to supporting the Blyth Food Bank with donations from our staff, or anyone else who is able).

Northumberland Communities Together

Volunteers who provide support for shopping, collecting prescriptions etc. for people who are vulnerable or self isolating.  Financial advice is also available.

Please contact the Northumberland Communities Together Response Hub.

Phone: 01670 620015 between 9am to 6pm, seven days a week.

Please do not hesitate to contact Glynis, Tracy or Demi regarding any support you may need.  We are continuing to work together to support our children and families.
