SIR – Looking ahead to National Family Week (May 26 May to June 1), it’s important to remember that one in three families with dependent children is affected by separation.
Recent polling by Relate, the UK’s leading relationship organisation, found that 58 per cent of separated parents don’t believe in a good separation. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
We know that getting the right support to handle separation makes a big difference. Relate offers practical, online support through its What Next? service – relate.org.uk/whatnext – helping separating couples to work through each stage of their separation, like telling the children and managing leaving day.
Visit the site or contact your local Relate Centre by calling 01274 726096 or e-mailing information@relatebradford.com for more information on how Relate can help.
