Supporting Families Through Covid-19 - Jigsaw offers online support!

24th Mar 2020

Helping you all the way through!

In these uncertain times, we want to reassure you that the Jigsaw project in Camphill Primary will be here for you and your family.

In line with government guidance and for the safety of our service users and staff I am currently working remotely, as in am based from home. This doesn't however mean that I am not available to provide support for ALL of our Camphill families going forward.

I recognize that this is an uncertain time for us all, and children will be particularly unregulated with all of the sudden changes to routine, as well as having heightened levels of anxiety. Some children may have started to display behaviours and emotional responses that are completely new to parents and that's were we particularly want to offer our support.

I am available for both telephone and email consultations, this can used to share resources for emotional and behavioural management and support or simply to provide a listening ear and some additional support for parents. 

I have access to some child friendly resources that I can email out to parents if needed.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact me - a problem shared is a problem halved and at Jigsaw we want to provide as much additional support for families at Camphill as we possibly can!

 

At this time there is no referral criteria as such to avail of support - this is open to absolutely ALL of our Camphill families and we want all of you to feel supported as we navigate these uncertain times together.
