Our Approach

This scheme is designed to promote the psychological well-being of children and families by providing a selection of quality self-help books in your local library.

Although the issues may be common, the scheme recognises that families are unique. The books therefore present many points of view and offer a variety of ways to understand how these things can both be influenced by, and affect family life.

Each of the books contains useful information, advice that should encourage you to use and develop skills you already have, suggests new ideas you may want to try to help manage your situation.

Most of all the importance of good relationships and communication are addressed as key factors in dealing with any difficulties in family life.
