We work closely with Becca Carter from Family Support Work (the Sussex Charity for Families) in Rustington. Becca is ably assisted by volunteers from our congregation in the ongoing work of providing support to the families with special needs in our parish. To find out more view the FSW Website.
Dear Friends
At last the sun is shining and we may be about to have some good weather, which with a summer full of activities planned, is essential for FSW and our families.
The practitioners are in a flurry of activity now as they deal with the final pieces of work with the schools as they close for the summer break. Of course, with us the work continues through the summer with the focus shifting to building memories for the families.
Even though the schools are on holiday we are still helping families as they prepare for the next school year. For some there is the sadness of leaving their primary school where they have felt safe, and anxiously looking towards the next step and a new school. During the summer the practitioners will be there helping those who are anxious overcome the worries before September, and of course helping parents deal with the needs of new school uniform, shoes and equipment for their children.
This will be our last letter to you until September, so I hope that you have a good summer yourselves.
Best Wishes
Martin and the FSW team
