We are doing lots in the community, Inspiring Your Future CIC, this project supports women who have been impacted by the justice system amongst others and we are loving it 🩵

This afternoon we will be delivering our third session to the amazing ladies at Tomorrows Women Wirral but at their Chester, Cheshire base. The programme was kindly funded by the Anne Duchess of Westminster Fund through Cheshire West Voluntary Action. It empowers women to understand, manage and recognise their own mental health, improve their physical fitness and boost their wellbeing through a series of bespoke workshops and we are loving it and so are they!

💜 Last year we were lucky enough to be awarded funding from The National Lottery to run an online family support programme to help improve the mental health of people who had a loved one in custody.

🩵 The project supported 50 families over 12 months and was called "We're All In Here Together"

💜 Having someone in custody can be such a traumatic experience for those left behind and they are often overlooked. The understanding, advice, care and peer support we offered can make the difference to how that family copies with the challenges that seperation brings.

🩵 Here is some of the feedback we received

💜" I suffer from bad anxiety and I was really worried about visits with the baby but they talked me through the whole thing and even messaged me on the day to check I was feeling ok, it felt like someone knew what I was going through.

I have been in the group now for 8 months, I've learnt so much about my own mental health and how to cope with prison life and a new baby.

Without the group I wouldn't have been able to cope some days but there was always someone there to listen to me, thank you so much"

💜 Safer Landings provides the key to better mental health in the justice system 🩵

🩵For the past 2 years we have been pulling this programme together.

🩵Built with a huge wealth of lived experience from both sides of the walls Safer Landings is a project that's so close to our hearts here at Inspiring Your Future CIC.

🩵We have already been funded to run a family support programme by the national lottery last year and this year we are focusing on growing that and linking up with other projects to support more people impacted by the criminal justice system.

🩵 As busy as we are as a team we will be putting some extra focus into our socials and sharing where we are talking Safer Landings next, so please give us a follow and share amongst your network's

🩵 Love team IYF 💜
