Our Story …
Bourne from our founder’s desire to help families live happy, fulfilling lives, Just Family. Janine Proctor - founder, director, practitioner and, most importantly, a mum of three girls! As a PhD (Candidate) and a qualified social worker with 20+ years’ experience of supporting families in different settings and circumstances, Janine has developed many vital and transferable skills which she now uses to provide expert support and care to children, parents and carers. Janine saw a need for support for families when she experienced first-hand the lack of support and service provision within her local area to assist her through a very difficult time of perinatal anxiety and depression during/after her pregnancy/birth of her second daughter. She saw the effect that it had not only on her, but also her family as a whole and how specialist support could have helped. Just Family CIC vision is for every family to live happy, healthy lives with positive relationships and a chance to reach their potential. Just Family CIC mission is to provide a range of quality support services, including peer support groups, parental workshops, 1-1 tailored support, advocacy, mentorship, signposting and accredited interventions, all run by highly skilled and specialist trained practitioners and volunteers that help and promote emotional health and wellbeing and ensure a holistic whole family approach to make a genuine difference to families lives now and help them build brighter futures. We support families with a range of issues that affect their general well-being, including: mental health challenges; parent/child attachment; relationship breakdowns; access to specialist support. OUR AIMS ARE TO:
Safeguard vulnerable adults and children; improve mental health (address depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, substance misuse); reduce social isolation and loneliness; increase engagement in specialist support; promote better family cohesion and relationships; reduce the number of
crisis points and demands on local services.

Our Story

Bourne from our founder’s desire to help families live happy, fulfilling lives, Just Family. CIC began in 2019.

Janine Proctor, founder, director, practitioner, and, most importantly, a mum of three girls!

PhD (candidate) Social Policy, a qualified Social Worker with 20+ years’ experience in working/supporting families in many different settings, experiencing a number of circumstances. Throughout her varied and interesting career, she has developed many transferable skills that are necessary to be able to communicate effectively with many different people, of all ages, from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences. Her ability to be versatile and adaptable is evidenced by her being able to interact with adults, children and their families/carers, as well as being equally self-confident in liaising and directing other professionals on sensitive matters.

The experiences outlined, and in addition to continuous training, learning and enthusiasm, have provided her with a good understanding of the many requirements of supporting individuals and their families. This has allowed her to deliver results efficiently and effectively in a professional and caring manner.

Janine saw a need for support for families when she experienced at first hand the lack of support and service provision within her local area to assist her through a very difficult time of perinatal anxiety and depression during/after her pregnancy/birth of her second daughter and the impact this had on daily life for herself and her family.

Her vision is for every family to live happy, healthy lives with positive relationships and a chance to reach their potential, through providing a range of support services including, peer support groups, parental workshops, 1-1 tailored support, advocacy, mentorship, signposting and accredited interventions, all run by trained practitioners and volunteers that are here to help and promote emotional health and wellbeing ensuring a holistic whole family approach to make a genuine difference to families lives now and help them build brighter futures.

We support families with a range of issues that affect their general well-being, including: mental health challenges; parent/child attachment; relationship breakdowns; access to specialist support.

We offer support to pre-natal and post-natal women, young mothers and fathers, families with children under five, and those with older children with special needs.

OUR AIMS ARE TO:

Safeguard vulnerable adults and children;

Improve mental health (address depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, substance misuse);

Reduce social isolation and loneliness;

Increase engagement in specialist support;

Promote better family cohesion and relationships;

Reduce the number of crisis points and demands on local services.
