The Family Haven was
established in 1988 to help disadvantaged and vulnerable families in
Gloucestershire to a brighter future.
We help parents and their pre-school children by providing a warm, caring and supportive day centre where assistance and encouragement is available to help them to improve the quality of their lives. |
Our Patron, Kate Winslet with client's children

 DIYSOS Wednesday 25th November 2009 was certainly a day to remember for everyone at the Family Haven as we were visited and filmed by DIYSOS for a Kids in Crisis Christmas Special. The film crew arrived with Mark Millar one of the presenter/craftsmen from the show. A great time was had by all and our very own stars of the show were Gill, Lorraine, Charmaine and Sara. The show was shown on BBC 1 on December 10th and we received far more airtime than expected.

Its Vouchers Time Again We are once again collecting Tesco's School and Clubs vouchers and Sainsbury's Active Kids vouchers. Please please don't turn them down at the tills, ask your friends, colleagues and neighbours to collect them on our behalf. They are a really precious resources as they can provide us with valuable new equipment.
