As the children head back to school we start to think about Autumn and Harvest. September marks the beginning of a hectic three months for us at FSW, with an increase in referrals expected as children return to school. This is coupled with the many changes children face at this time of year — moving from primary to secondary, meeting new classmates, or adjusting to a new teacher in primary school.

 

For some of the children we work with, change can be unsettling, and the need to support both child and parent/carer increases. This is a well-worn path for our Practitioners, and it is a testament to them that they rise to meet the challenge head on.

Here at Garton House we are preparing for what we hope will be a bumper harvest, with lots of gifts to fill the store cupboard that stocks our food bank. The food that comes in at this time helps to tide us over into the spring of next year, as we build up supplies to support families through the winter months, when the pressure of heating and eating can become a financial nightmare for many of our families. If your church or your children’s (or grandchildren’s) school holds a Harvest Festival, you might like to suggest FSW as the recipient but please remember that we are unable to accept fresh food.

As summer draws to a close you will see in this newsletter that we have enjoyed a great season, with loads of activities for families to take part in. Much of this is thanks to you and the continuing support we receive. As always, we are very grateful for everything you do for FSW and our families — whether it’s a small tin of beans or a generous donation, every contribution helps us work together to bring lasting change to families’ lives.

Best wishes
Martin and the FSW Team
