The miracle of NEWPIN

What help is there for parents at their wits’ end? Who is there to give long-term support? Who can transform their lives and save their young children from physical and emotional harm? Who can provide the right sort of service to ensure that the parents don’t end up dead, or in prison or psychiatric hospital, and the children in care?

NEWPIN can!

 

THE first NEWPIN (New Parent Infant Network) centre opened in South London in 1982. Anne Jenkins, a health visitor, knew that what she could offer to distraught families was nowhere near enough. The service she developed is described by a NEWPIN co-ordinator in Australia as ‘the most unique, special, effective, empowering, life-changing, authentic change programme for families in the world.’  John Bowlby was ‘a great fan.’ And a mother who went through it calls it ‘a miracle.’

The miracle of NEWPIN!
As a parent and a psychotherapist, Ros Kane knows how hard it can be to be a ‘good enough’ parent and was privileged to help set up a Newham NEWPIN in 1992. She now wants to press, with others, for the establishment of many more.
‘I think the kids would be dead now if I hadn’t come to NEWPIN.’
