Helping families and couples (whether together or separated) understand and build healthy relationships.
Happy family relationships make us all feel good and help our children feel secure and loved.
Often as a parent or carer, we are trying to juggle lots of things, and keep our own relationships as positive as can be. Sometimes all relationships can become difficult, and this may impact everyone.
South Tyneside’s Relationships Matter programme launched in May 2023.
Relationships Matter has been created to provide advice, tips, and support to help adults think about how their communication with others might impact on the children and young people around them.
We currently offer a range of support including three online programmes available for parents to access.
The support we offer ranges from online resources that parents can use to help themselves, that they can work through with a professional and also a number of courses for parents who are separated and together.
Me, You and Baby Too
A digital programme for new and expectant parents who are adapting to changes that parenthood will have on their relationship.
Arguing Better
A digital programme for parents experiencing high levels of stress and conflict in their relationship, learning strategies to argue better.
