Give Me Strength

Give Me Strength is a national campaign run by 4Children which demands more help for families to avert crisis.

Every year 28,000 children go into care in England. Millions more have their chances of success in later life diminished by growing up in families facing serious and multiple challenges with little or no practical help. Yet research shows us that these crises can often be prevented if the right help is available at the right time. Families tell us that this means early help as problems develop and before crisis sets in.

The social and economic cost of family crisis is avoidable. This campaign demands that we respond to this call to put an end to wasting money and wasting lives. Family dramas don’t need to become crises.
