£2.7 million fund to tackle parental conflict (04 January 2019)
The fund is the latest in a range of government measures that aim to reduce the risk of parental conflict.
Parental conflict can range from a lack of warmth and emotional distance, right through to verbal abuse. If children are exposed to this sort of distress over longer periods of time, their emotional and social development can be significantly affected. It may stop children from doing as well at school or even impact their career chances in later life.
Children most at risk are those with parents who are out of work, on low incomes, or struggling with physical and mental health conditions.
The fund will be made up of 2 separate strands.
