Company activities and impact

2024 saw us enter growth mode as we set in motion plans for moving to a new site. It has also been a period of great impact, where we have increased the number of people that we work with. We expanded our Mindful Movement project into schools, as well as providing antenatal and postnatal yoga sessions. This resulted in 1,394 people supported through yoga alongside a clinical psychologist. Other new programmes included infant massage, with 78 caregivers and babies supported, strengthening early relationships during a critical time in a child’s development. Circle of Security groups were launched alongside our early years provision, with a small cohort of parents to help inform the future of this programme. Delivery of our specialist training saw significant growth as we moved to online and self-paced training. This included 70 people signing up to the waiting list for our ‘Nurturing the developing nervous system’ training, delivered by our clinical psychologists. Engagement in our regular community events, including Gather in the Garden more than tripled on last year thanks to the appointment of a new Community and Partner Engagement Lead. This has resulted in more than 400 people attending Gather in the Garden events in 2024. This is helping us to reach our goals for our new site, which has required a lot of planning and consultation. We began to build a team to carry us forward into 2025 and beyond, including crucial roles being filled under our early years provision. We plan to continue this progress and look forward to having our new site confirmed in 2025. In total, we have supported 2,399 children, parents and professionals in 2024, far surpassing our goal to serve 1,000 families annually. Nurture Families provides a range of services for families with children, before birth and throughout their early years, by supporting parent-child relationships and advancing quality early education and care. At the heart of our services is our psychology-led multi-disciplinary parent-infant relationship team, which provides training and support to the wider system. As a result of this work more children have benefitted from a sufficiently secure and nurturing relationship with at least one parent/carer.

Consultation with stakeholders

The CIC’s stakeholders are residents of Worcestershire and Herefordshire. A programme development group, including those with ‘lived experience’ meets regularly. Surveys and assessments are completed regularly by service users, including feedback forms. This enables us to remain responsive to community needs. Stakeholders from the early childhood workforce are consulted at each training event to inform future events and training needs. We gather feedback from key partner organisations, including the NHS and other VCSEs. This keeps us aligned on our vision for a collaborative early childhood ecosystem of support. Board members, project workers, volunteers and our staff team meet regularly for supervision, ongoing project meetings and strategic meetings.
