St Michaels Fellowship

we are a registered charity aiming to improve the lifechances of our most vulnerable children in our society by working with their parents. families we support are at multiple disadvantage and parents'​ issues, such as poverty, mental ill health, learning difficulties, substance misuse and domestic violence precede parenthood. half of mothers in residential parenting assessment have experienced abuse or neglect in their own childhood, nearly a third have spent time in care or accommodation. we look to break intergenerational cycles of poverty and underachievement and sustain positive change. without sustained, evidence based intervention, there is a very high likelihood of increased personal risk to parents, further pregnancies, and a new cycle of failure and trauma for the child. covering london and the south east, we run residential and community parenting assessment services providing intensive intervention, teaching and support to assess parents'​ capacity for change. outreach for
