The Kings Hedges Family Support Project
We are a charity that has been working in Cambridge for over 20 years, based in local communities delivering three days of family support drop-in’s for parents and their children up to the age of 3.
We offer:
- A friendly welcome for you and your family from Family Support Workers and Play Workers.
- Creative activities and a safe space to play and talk.
- Healthy snacks and lunches.
Our Values
- We believe that confident parenting makes for happier children.
- We aim to help parents to feel confident to make the choices that are important to them.
- We work in a welcoming and non-judgemental way.
- Our staff are kind, approachable and knowledgeable.
- We help to reduce feelings of isolation and increase a sense of community and offer a high quality, safe place to play, relax and talk.
- We work actively with partners and connect families to them, ensuring they have access to relevant information and advice.
