Relationship Matters is a new partnership between North Yorkshire County Council and Local Authorities across Yorkshire and the Humber region helping families who may be having relationship difficulties. In response to the DWP Reducing Parental Conflict Programme a new website has been launched to offer families information, tips, help and support.
All relationships have tricky moments it is how they are experienced and resolved that matters especially at the moment when we have enforced self-isolation, lock down and social distancing. We are also spending much longer periods of time with each other and this could bring about some added challenges.
The website provides help and information to help families to stay calm, try to work it out and think about the impact on the children. The website also has links to national websites and other contact details. To access the website, go to: www.relationshipmatters.org.uk
A Professionals Briefing is also available to read here.
