LIFT is committed to working in a holistic way with individuals, families and the community. We use a whole family approach using the Key working model.

LIFT’S aims & objectives are to assist families to learn new skills to improve their lives and encourage their children to grow up feeling loved, safe and respected so that they can reach their full potential.

 Through support and advocacy LIFT aims to tackle child poverty, increase wellbeing for individuals and families, to allow them to move forward from poverty and crises. This will be done in a variation of one – one support and group work sessions. Group work will consist of upskilling, cooking on a budget, budgeting, confidence building and employability skills. LIFT will follow Every Child, Every Chance model, working towards reducing child poverty, learn new skills to increase employment and training opportunities, assisting families to move forward from poverty and crises.
