Spurgeons Together, we create family hubs where we're needed most, with counselling, early years and family support.

We partner with local councils, churches and
communities to care for every family, putting children and young people first
in everything we do.

Earlier this week, our wonderful Catherine and Vicky attended the Gather Movement London Summit, where they shared the inspiring story of our Spurgeons Connects partnership with Cippenham Baptist Church. πŸ’™

Through strong local collaboration, this partnership has helped build relationships with families, raise awareness of available support, and create a welcoming space where people feel comfortable talking about life's challenges and accessing help when they need it.

We're passionate about helping churches become places of connection, support and hope within their communities, and this partnership is a fantastic example of what's possible when organisations work together.

Have you ever noticed a child who seems to cope well at school but comes home completely exhausted or overwhelmed?

Some children with ADHD work incredibly hard to hide their symptoms to avoid standing out from their peers. This is known as masking.

While masking can help children blend in, it can also affect their wellbeing, confidence and ability to access support.

Our latest blog explains what ADHD masking is, why it happens and how parents and schools can help.

Would you spot the signs if your child was being cyberbullied? πŸ’­

Online bullying isn't always obvious. It can happen through social media, messaging apps, gaming platforms and group chats, leaving children feeling isolated, anxious or overwhelmed.

In our latest blog, we explain what cyberbullying is, the warning signs parents and carers should look out for, and the practical steps you can take to support your child.

Sometimes the most important thing we can do is start a conversation and let our children know they're not facing things alone. πŸ’™

A day full of smiles, laughter and family time πŸ’™

In August, our Prison Family Hub team hosted their annual Family Farm Day at HMP Wi******er. Families enjoyed meeting small animals, taking part in crafts, getting their hair braided and sharing popcorn and hotdogs together.

Events like these give families the chance to spend meaningful time together, helping to build stronger relationships and create positive memories that last long after the day is over.

It was wonderful to see so many families enjoying themselves, and we're grateful to everyone who helped make the day so special. πŸ°πŸ‘βœ¨

A very special summer challenge superstar 🌟

As our 27.5 Hour Summer Challenge comes to a close, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate one very inspiring fundraiser.

Elsie, aged 9, decided to take part after her school shared information about the challenge. Earlier this year, Elsie received counselling through Spurgeons at school to help her manage some worries she was experiencing. The support she received made such a positive impact that she wanted to give something back.

We're delighted to share that Elsie completed the full 27.5 Hour Summer Challenge and raised an amazing Β£80 for Spurgeons! πŸŽ‰

When asked why she wanted to take part, Elsie said:
"I thought it would be good to raise some money as they helped me at school and also to get more exercise."

We couldn't be prouder of Elsie and her incredible achievement.

Please help us celebrate Elsie by leaving her a message of congratulations in the comments below! πŸ’œπŸ‘

One of the things we love most about Parents Connect is this: anyone can do it. πŸ’›

Parents Connect is a free programme from Spurgeons that equips church volunteers to run parenting courses for their local community. No parenting qualifications needed. No specialist background required. Just a willing volunteer and a church that wants to support local families.

Spurgeons provides everything: full facilitator training, all the course content, videos, guides and materials. Volunteers complete self-paced online training and then they’re ready to go.

Available to churches in the Spurgeons Churches Network. If you know someone who would be brilliant at this, share this post with them. πŸ‘‡
