Family Rights Group promotes policies and practices that keep children safe within their family and strengthen the family and community networks of those children who cannot live at home. They run a free, independent and confidential advice service. They advise families when they are involved with children’s services or need their help. They provide advice for parents, grandparents, relatives and friends including kinship carers in England. Their expert advisers are all experienced lawyers, social workers or family rights advocates. They help families to understand the law and child welfare processes and their rights and options. And to better understand social work concerns. They campaign for families to have their voice heard, be treated fairly and get help early to prevent problems escalating. Family Rights Groups are a national charity that advises parents, grandparents, relatives and friends about their rights and options when social workers or courts make decisions about their children’s welfare. They work with parents whose children are in need, at risk or are in the care system and with wider family members and friends who are raising children (known as kinship carers).
