Supporting Bryony*

Bryony moved to our Young Parents’ Accommodation service with her baby.

She was referred due to domestic violence in her relationship with the father of her child.

She was supported to care for her child and engaged with a parenting assessment, working through a safe relationship programme with her family support worker.

Staff observed positive care and interaction with her baby, and she distanced herself completely from her ex-partner, before moving from our accommodation to her own tenancy.

Bryony was encouraged to keep in contact with her mother who wanted to support her. This relationship flourished and by the time she moved out they were in a very good place.
