Tou-Can

Our friends at Action Station NW CIC getting festive! They've been saving Christmas goodies all year... go grab a bargain!

Please share, at TalkFIRST, we help around 100 sets of separated parents every year sort out issues around children.

Picking up the phone is the 1st step towards happier times.

This photo was taken the day my little girl was born. She’s six now.

Back then, I was in a physically abusive and deeply unhappy relationship. It’s hard to even put that into words — but time does help. Healing isn’t quick or neat, but it’s possible.

I’m sharing this for anyone who needs to hear it today: things can change. You can rebuild.

TalkFIRST helped me when I felt completely lost, and they still do to this day. They gave me space to talk, to understand, to breathe again.

Now, I’m proud to say I’m a trustee — giving back to the organisation that helped me find my voice. 💛

If you’re struggling, please reach out. You’re not alone.
