A huge congratulations to NFJO's Beverley Barnett Jones who has received an honorary doctor of letters from University of Essex and Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust

A hugely deserved recognition of many years of hard work and dedication to improving the lives of children and families

Celebrating #EidAlFitr reminds us of the joy in unity & inclusivity, especially important for children from separated parents.

Wishing all a joyful Eid filled with love and togetherness. #Family #MentalHealthMatters #family #Divorce

Even though parents may be living apart, it does not mean they have to be 'APART' in terms of their parenting and support for their children.

Separation doesn't have to lead to a disconnect in the family dynamic and that effective co-parenting can bridge the physical divide.

Easter is about coming together. Showing our children that parents can team up supports their happiness and mental health. Lets prioritise our children's mental health by embracing co-parenting harmony.

This is so important and often data protection is used as a barrier for agencies across government to work together. This makes it so much harder for professionals on the ground to work in a more collaborative manner.
