REDDITCH Council’s Parenting and Family Support Service has been presented with a prestigious award for the services it provides.

The service was awarded the CANparent Quality Mark in June, the only quality standard that has been developed for the parenting sector.

The team is thrilled to have received the award which will further increase and give added assurance to parents, partners, communities and commissioners that the service provided is of the highest quality.

In order to achieve the award, the groups provided by the service were required to meet a number of criteria including being relied upon by parents to make a positive difference to improve parent/child relationships.

Liz Griffiths, parenting operational manager, said: “At our groups we promise you a warm welcome. The groups are informative, supportive and fun and we receive great feedback from parents who tell us about the changes they have made to family life following joining a group.

"If you are interested in joining a fun, approachable and quality award winning group then please do get in touch to talk things over.”
