Families in Care (FIC) provides a unique and independent support, advocacy and counselling service to birth parents involved             with Child Protection Services. Established by a group of parents, FIC has been a registered charity for over 20 years and is                   recognised as a specialist organisation by child care professionals across Tyneside.

​

​

     We are a Team of passionate people working together to support some of the most vulnerable and isolated members of our             society. All members of our team have necessary knowledge and experience in the child protection field and are driven by                   common values of empowerment, humanity and justice.

​

"It is a priviledge to work with so inspiring, dedicated and passionate individuals. I believe that our strenght is that here, in Families in Care, our values are

our bottom line, our starting and ending point, with the humility in a face of real personal experience and people's struggles being at the core of our ethos."
