A CAMPAIGN to warn parents of the effects their conflicts have on their children is being launched.
"When you are blue they feel it too" is the slogan of the Hartlepool campaign, called Through Their Eyes.
The campaign is being run by the Healthy Relationships Partnership Hartlepool – a partnership between Changing Futures North-East, Hartlepool Borough Council, Belle Vue Sports, Community & Youth Centre and Tavistock Relationships which works to support parental relationships and improve life for children.
The campaign will be launched on Thursday, February 8 at a conference for invited professionals called ‘Relationships Matter’, organised by the Partnership at Hartlepool College of Further Education.
A series of drop-in events for Hartlepool parents will be held where they will be able to chat and find out more about the help available.
Jayne Moules, the Partnership’s Project Lead, said: “In today’s world, parents face some tough challenges, such as finances and work. This in turn can trigger stress and conflict – or at worst a complete relationship breakdown – which not only has a very bad effect on their own health and wellbeing, it has a very big impact on their young children too."
