Nominated for The Family Support Award, Momentum is up against three other charities, all doing fantastic work to support children and young people; The Hub @FSN, SNAP, and St Christopher’s.

Momentum has a team of 11 Family Support Workers who support families with children who have been diagnosed with cancer or another life-challenging condition. The team includes two people who are dedicated to supporting families through our bereavement service, Echoes. Covering Surrey, Sussex and London, our Family Support team work in partnership with nine hospitals to offer emotional and practical support to families, helping to guide them through incredibly difficult times.

The Children and Young People Now Awards showcase innovation and outstanding practice across the children’s services sector, providing an opportunity to champion the vital work of services supporting children, young people and families across the UK.

There are 24 awards up for grabs at the ceremony which will take place at the Novotel London West, Hammersmith on Thursday 28 November – wish us luck!
