Stepfamilies

Care for the Family provides a range of resources for stepfamilies.  Stepfamilies are the fastest growing family type in the UK. Over one third of us are part of the step family experience, whether directly, or indirectly through relationships with grandchildren.

 

 

  • Stepfamilies can be a great source of joy, but they also face many different family pressures. Care for the Family want to support all ‘blended families’ as they learn how to live in a stepfamily. They do this through a free newsletter, practical articles and other resources. http://www.careforthefamily.org.uk/stepfamily/This is the Care for the Family logo and a link to their website
