Anglican Family Care  

Anglican Family Care offers free, professional social work support to Otago children and their families.

We visit the families at home and work with parents to ensure the safety, health and wellbeing of their children.

We also offer counselling to parents and play therapy to children and adults.

From the desk of Mike Williams: An update from our General Manager

Friday May 8, 2020

I hope the very slight relaxing of restrictions over the past fortnight has allowed some of you to branch out a little further from your homes. Perhaps a walk on the beach or at a park, reconnections with family or someone close to you as you expand your respective bubbles to include other essential people in your lives. It is reassuring to think that we may be entering Alert Level 2 very soon and at Anglican Family Care we are already in the advanced stages of making plans to ensure we have a safe transition back to our offices in Dunedin, Oamaru, Balclutha, Alexandra and Wanaka. Much still depends on the announcement of the Government on Monday 11 May and the safety measures required to undertake work such as ours safely.
