From 2015 to 2022, CES worked with organisations funded through the National Lottery Community Fund in Northern Ireland’s Reaching Out, Supporting Families Programme.
CES’s role was to help the organisations to implement their projects, and to capture learning from the overall investment for the Fund. Over a period of seven years, we held training and networking activities, organised conferences and events to highlight good practice, and published reports and articles to capture learning for policy makers and service providers working with families.
