About Healthier Relationships
Age range: Suitable for parents with children of any age up to 16 years
Duration: Flexible
Delivery: Online resources
Arguments are part of every healthy relationship but when they become frequent, intense and poorly resolved they have a negative impact on you and your family. A relationship in distress can place children at risk of mental health and behavioural issues, and they may have problems with school and learning.
Evidence has shown that when parents, co-parents and carers communicate well and manage stress together, children do better.
There are two ways you can access support for you and your family:
-
Join our online group-support workshop to talk things through with others
-
Or log onto our self-help tools and explore at your own pace
​​
-
Me, You and Baby Too - aimed at expecting and new parents.
-
Arguing Better - aimed at couples who are together
-
Getting it Right for Children - aimed at couples who are separating or have separated

When we argue with our partner or ex-partner, we can get caught up in the heat of the moment. At times like these, it’s difficult to find a way forward.
