Welcome!
We
offer support and help to those suddenly facing single parenthood; to those who
have been a lone parent for a while; to single parents who parent from a
distance; and to the children and young people within single parent families.
The service of our organisation is based on a Christian ethos, although the support and activities offered are available to ALL who are part of a single parent family, regardless of their situation, circumstance and faith.
South Cheshire CLASP has been a local support organisation since 1998, obtaining charity status in 2002, and works with over 150 families a year, with the help of a dedicated team of part time staff & volunteers.
It is an expression of care and concern for all single parents and their children, many of whom have found acceptance, help, encouragement, friendship and fun in recent years.
There is plenty of opportunity for parents and children to link up at weekly drop in sessions, or through various activities and events, and some can access additional support through a confidential listening and counselling service.
Various programmes and workshops in parenting, assertiveness training, coping with anger, basic first aid in the home, healthy eating and cooking on a low budget, all help to restore confidence and self worth in adults and young people alike. And we see lots more smiling faces!
