Objectlves and activities
The Memorandum ofAsso¢iation sets out our objecfjves forthe pulAi¢ t*ngfiL"_

financial hardship, iu heatth. disabilty or stress I'Family Support VVork'}.

to advance Christianity by fami￿ support work and the **lf8ie ofthe community.
The Principal actiwty of the Assoaation is to support families across the Chithester DI0￿￿e who are struggling.
This 15 carried out by a tèam of prol8ssionally qualrfied Family supp￿ Prxtitioners fFSPs"l {SocAal Workers,
Health Visil0r5. Earty Holp Woth¢rs and Teachers) who offer intensNe sipwi to the famity. erther as a whole or
as individuals.

The aim of the support is to enabl8 lh8 famity to ovarcxNn& the chaI￿ng8s th￿ farkn so thal th8y b8comè strongèr
both as indiwdu81s and as a family unit, h&l￿n9 them to beo)me less cha0￿. As the family an¢J the indiwdyals
start lo contribute to their local cornmunty in a posthve and proactive way, Ihe b&nefil of our service5 starts lo
impact on the public purse by re<lu¢ing the need for support from staluttxy agenc*s.
Alongside the work of the FSPS, we offèr 8ctivitiÈs induding after schoc4 clubs. targeted drop4ns. holiday
activities and lun days. These offer families opportunth.es to find supp)rt, develop new friendships wlh
likeminded peole and the polenlial lo create informal support networks amongst the families.
FSW runs its own dedicated food banK which give5 praclical support lo families to hdp improve diet, finances
and cookery skills within the family. FSW also supports families by securing grants for whrfce goods, School
unifomis and fuel costs.
Our Ethos
Having been established by metnbers of Chithestei Dio(w in 1890 we emt¥ac8 our Christian heritage arKI
adhere lo the principles of Chtislianity lo show k)ve. cornpassion. and support to thosè who need it most. This is
¢8rried out by actions demonslratiryJ the Christian ethos whilst proudly offering oui services 1¢ people of all faiths
and none. IMiil$l we operate under Ihe Christian ethos we do not evangelse.
put￿lC ljenefit
The Iruslees receive reports at e￿ trwd meeting, which illustrate the positive impad the activilies havo on
both the families and the wider public. The Irustees aLso review Ihe publi¢ benefit of the work of the a$so¢ialion in
line with the Charity Commission guidance. The impad of the associat￿5 work with the families has dired. bul
not always obvious. benefils Irj Ihe wider pu￿￿. In the first instsnce. as we see pargnts 18luin lo work there is a
r&duclion in benefit psymenly lo the family, a ¢hik4 who has additiona edwalional needs may become less
disruptive in school because of support re￿ived. The FSPS have worked wth familie5 and red￿￿d th8 nèèd to
lake children into care, so again the a550cialed costs of ether short or Ifmg temi care for the children have been
avoided giving a sawng to the public purse.
Our long-term suppori, ￿lch can be for an unlimrted time. is aimed al suppor￿ng famdiès wlh complex needs lo

h the Comparable figures for the last year induded abov8 w8 can see hcyw the needs that families are fa¢ing
are changing. The large increase in the neèd for support lor 8ducatk)nal matlers inclLhJes the need lo support
families as they are processed IhTough the system. Tho key dgmgnt of this work is to ensure the correct level of
support lor the child is put in place. Vve are finding thal the support we gNe in this area is increasing auoss a
widè rangé of lamilies and across all income brackets, not just on families with hardship needs. The long waiting
1151s lor stalutory services to be able to assess and Supp￿ thildren ¥￿th educational hélp piBns are th8 driver
behind this in¢rease in our workload.
There are $mall irt¢reas@s in work around relationship issue5 and menlal health issues. but wrth rnany of our
familie$ being ongoing casès tha speed of growth ha5 slowed in tt*se areas. This reflects some of the
improvements we made with thg long-term familie5 over the previous year. The impact thal we make year on
year with the familie5 we support with CoMp￿X needs reinfO￿S the need for the long4erm holistic nature of the
woTrrk we undertake. In S￿re inStan￿S. thère is little change but slabikty, wthh is essential for the wellbeing ol
children.
The decline in bolh financial and housing issu¢s rellects the impa¢t ol ￿ lOn￿terM 5UPPOrt. Wrth focuseij help
on budgeting the families better manage their finances. Support with practical help. in the guise of food bank
deliverios. free activities and access to support funds help in the short term. UltImale￿ the impact in thig area is
to onabb families to better manage on their own. It has Proven hard to ￿Ing pressure on kandlords lo make the
requwgd improvements lo substandard properties that some of our larni1￿ are forced lo ￿ve in.
Outcomes
FSW us8s th8 Family Star system to monitor the outcomes famity by farnily of our work. During the last year, w•
have seen significant inuease in the a￿lity of parents to cope wrth the issues they face. The two areas which
have shown the biggest positive change for our f8milEs are parental wellbeuig and familios becoming
¢¢onomi¢ally stable. This strengthening of paren15 leads to a stroTrJer famity that L*comes morg resilient and
able Its Gope with the challenges they f￿. As the family star measures improvem2nts and dedines in the acfions
ol the families, we a￿ not ctrvèrty conL%m8d by the reduction in the percenlgje of familie5 k￿Pirng their children
safe. Thi5 figure started at 8 higher level ol ¢hibJ safety in April 23 than we did in April 22 so the decline in this
area refflects the higher stsndafd.

Fundral$lng
In the last twpfve months we have seen our iwwe gr(w in several key areas of fUndr￿sing. AJI our vdunlary
In¢omo saw increases. bul we note that there wefe Iwo exceptional amounts of income this y6ar- th8 grant from
the Bell Hostel Tru51 as they c105ed and an individual who donated £114,000 for work in a sp8cffic gèographical
area. This latter income will be recognised in future finan￿81 periods. in fjne with required a¢¢ounling slandar¢l5.
Even with the exceptional income items removed, the results from a smau but highly professional and d&dicated
fundraising team show remarf(able resulls in the curreni dimate.
Th¢ trading income fr(Trrn the shop has grown by 9.5% ov9r thg year but this growth was offset by the in¢rea$e in
utilwty and salary increases refielaing the u)st-of-IMng cllsis.
During the year we employed a digital marketing appren11￿ to increase our on4ne presen(x and to help FSW
reach new audiences. To maintain the growth in income we need to sustain the current wOr￿Oad and strengthen
our 18am to ansurè that we meet the ev8r-rising demand.
