We need your help!

Unfortunately our Helping Working Families Project is coming to an end of it's funding. We have been working hard behind the scenes to embed elements of our project into the winder community once this funding comes to an end.

We now are at the point in time where we need to evaluate the project which has been in existence since 2019.

We are hoping anyone who had been involved in the programme over this time will help us by completing this short survey.

Weather you have been involved through being a volunteer, or accessing our family grab bags, attending our family play session in partnership with Torfaen Chwarae Torfaen Torfaen Play, attending a Mumentum event, or accessing any of our free family activities over the half term and summer holidays.

Please click the link bellow and share you thoughts;

https://forms.office.com/e/KiY7ueJxpe

Anyone who completes this survey will then be entered into a prize draw with a chance of winning a Family Christmas Treats Hamper.

Closing Date for this Survey is Friday 29th November.

Thank you in advance :)
