Description
Pause is a national charity that works with women who have experienced - or are at
the risk of having - more than one child removed from their care. They work with
women over a number of months and tailor their support to each individual woman’s
needs and their hopes for the future across a variety of areas, from housing to
improving relationships with children. In this episode we hear from T and Lillian. T
shares her experience of child removal and care proceedings and talks about the
work she has done and the support she has had from Pause and her practitioner
Lillian.
