September 2025

Written By Greg Barton

September always feels like a time for new starts and here at WLAC our main therapy space has been freshened up and transformed into the Heather Room, in memory of our late Chief Executive, Heather Boxer (read more below).

As the school year begins, our team is gearing up for a busy term, launching Rebuilding Family Lives  a group for victims of domestic abuse, continuing CAMEO stay-and-play, and holding Dads Matter Alumni sessions for dads who want to reconnect.

There’s lots of work ahead, but also plenty of hope – and many ways you can help. Our autumn fundraising calendar is full with something for everyone.

Thank you, as always, for your support, which makes it possible for children and families in our community to find strength, healing and brighter futures.

Wishing you all very best from the WLAC Team.

What was once our Blue Room has been transformed into the Heather Room, in memory of our much-loved Chief Executive, Heather. Thanks to the generosity of volunteers from GLG, a sofa donation from Adventures in Furniture, and the persistence of volunteer Angela, the space is now cosy and calming. Read more and see pictures!

 

One of our therapists writes about the importance of therapists undertaking special training to work with interpreters, to help break language barriers, and build bridges of communication with the families we support. Read more.
