SPACE (Supporting People and Communities Everyday)

What are the services like?

SPACE – our work can be very practical – help with transport, homework clubs, parenting programmes, practical help with childcare/household management or may involve a range of more complex help where situations are more challenging

We are the lead organisation for the Newry and Mourne Family Support Hub working with a range of statutory and voluntary organisations to identify solutions for families who are going through tough times. The families we work with are facing challenges including physical and mental health problems, family breakdown, parenting difficulties, financial problems and isolation. All our families live within South Down, South Armagh and rural Craigavon.

We can offer you; family support workers who assist with childcare, household chores, transport to medical appointments etc.

A family support home visit to advise on services, grants and benefits and help you access these by identifying relevant services, making onward referrals and supporting you through the application process.
