Member Details

Brighter Futures is a charity that supports parents, carers, children and young people in Jersey. We provide key worker support alongside a number of free programmes and services to help support the parents and carers we meet.
Parents and carers come to us for a variety of reasons and from across the social spectrum. Everyone has different backgrounds, experiences, family and financial situations and parents/carers can often feel socially isolated, require support for their wellbeing and mental health and support for their child to grow and thrive.
We work alongside the main carer to support child development, parent/carer-child relationships, family health and wellbeing to increase the life chances and opportunities of the family.
We offer a range of personal development, educational and second chance learning programmes, group sessions, one-to-one emotional support, information, advice and practical help in order to aid parents and carers with self-esteem, confidence and communication skills.
Brighter Futures is based at The Bridge and clients can self-refer or they can be referred by any professional who knows them. We work in partnership with other agencies to support clients to make lasting and sustainable changes that will make a difference to their future, through the choices they make for themselves and their families.
