We know how painful separation can be. If you are a parent, you might also be worrying about your children and how they are coping. We are proud to be part of the Positive Parenting Alliance, which is a group of organisations that recognise separation is only part of your journey as a parent, not the end.
A new survey from the Positive Parenting Alliance also shows that employee performance is affected by family breakdown and separation, as more than 90% of respondents said that their work performance was impacted when they went through a divorce, and 95% reported that their mental health at work suffered.
We have signed up to the #parentspromise, which helps parents make a positive commitment to their children today, in case of a relationship breakdown tomorrow.
If you are a parent hoping to access support, or an employer looking for more ways to support your employees with their family relationships, you can contact us by emailing relationshipsolutions.org.uk.
