Thousands of families to benefit from £100,000 Poundland Foundation donation

A generous donation from the Poundland Foundation has given Family Action the ability to support thousands more families each year through our free, UK wide FamilyLine helpline and new online self-help resource.

The £100,000 donation will mean the development of an online Get Support area for those seeking help with many of the common challenges we respond to through FamilyLine: from parenting challenges to family conflict, relationship difficulties to concerns about mental health.

FamilyLine is here for every family and any family issue, and the Poundland Foundation’s grant will help us improve the speed and quality of the service we can provide, thanks to a fast-track case management system and improved analytics. This, and our online self-help resources will help us increase the number of families we can support each year.

Family Action Chief Executive, Sir David Holmes CBE, said, “We are immensely grateful to the Poundland Foundation for their generous donation. This funding will significantly enhance our ability to support families facing challenging times.

“With the expansion of our FamilyLine service and the introduction of new online resources, we can provide timely and effective assistance to even more individuals, ensuring that those in need know where to turn for practical help and emotional support.”
