"We are a learning community, working together to provide a safe, caring and supportive environment.
 Our learning journey will be creative, challenging and personalised...
 to be the best we can."

Here is a fantastic resource that has been written by Manx Mental Health Community Nurse Helen Oliver. It is an excellent resource pack for you to use as an adult and also to adapt for your children and family. Take care of ourselves and then we can take care of others.

Whichever way this throws us we will stand

FAMILY ACTION - ISLE OF MAN HELPLINE

Family Action has been working with families in the Isle of Man since 2016. We recognise the impact Coronavirus could have on families and want to help as much as we can. The strain of staying indoors, increased financial pressures, children to occupy and help with learning – these are all the daily challenges for families in the Isle of Man and around the world.

This is why we have set up an Isle of Man helpline, dedicated to providing practical and emotional support to parents and families in the Isle of Man. Our trained and experienced staff are based in the Isle of Man too and ready to talk to you and provide support in the following areas:

Activities to keep children occupied

Emotional coping skills and focusing on the well-being of all family members

Supporting your child to learn whilst not at school and also to learn through play

Signposting to gain financial help and support from other services

Practical parenting support

All support is tailored for you and your family

We are also hoping to have boxes of resources ready shortly to help you keep your children busy indoors. When these are ready we can drop them to your home and leave them outside for you.

If you would like to talk to someone for advice and get access to a range of help and resources, please call us on 01624 611 568. We’re here 9 to 5, Monday to Friday throughout this challenging period of coronavirus restrictions.
