The Community Family Care charity from Staunton, near Newent, has won a £4,000 grant from the People’s Postcode Lottery.
The money will go towards IT equipment such as laptops and mobile phones for case workers and cover training and recruitment costs for five new family support workers.
The charity helps families, children and young people in need of support.
“Getting essential IT equipment and keeping it up-to-date is a big cost for an organisation like ours which has three staff and relies on public funding,” said manager Sasha Brown.
“So getting the support of the People’s Postcode Trust is invaluable.”
The charity seeks to improve parents’ confidence, help with routines to get children to school, or more complex support dealing with challenging behaviours at home.
People’s Postcode Lottery is a charity lottery. Players play with their postcodes to win cash prizes whilst raising money for good causes. A minimum of 30 per cent goes directly to charities.
Since 2009, People’s Postcode Trust has awarded more than £11 million to more than 1,600 charity projects across Great Britain. This funding is only made possible through the support of players of People’s Postcode Lottery.
