Free Guides and Publications
Free guides and low‑cost publications from It’s My Family are designed to give protective parents practical tools to observe, document, and communicate safeguarding concerns with confidence. One‑to‑one sessions don’t suit everyone for many people, private, personal study is a more effective and less overwhelming way to learn.
​
That’s exactly why I’ve created these resources: to support individuals who are preparing for a CAFCASS assessment, responding to recommendations, or organising their court bundle for an upcoming hearing. Each booklet offers structured guidance to help you prioritise your child safeguarding concerns in a clear, succinct way that reduces the risk of them being minimised, misunderstood, or overlooked.
