The Situation on the ground for voluntary organisations working with families is “chaotic”, the Bishop of Southwark has said.
He highlighted problems faced by the organisations during a debate on “strengthening families, community cohesion and social action” in the House of Lords on Thursday, February 28.
The Rt Rev Tom Butler said funding continuity was one of the particular issues leading to uncertainty.
He said Christian organisations, such as Welcare in his diocese, are “committed to supporting families through prayer, pastoral care and in other practical ways ”” and through the provision of education”.
Bishop Butler told peers: “I wish to focus on the delivery of family care at local borough level, for here ”” despite what were well intentioned changes in the delivery of services ”” it is our experience that the current situation on the ground is chaotic.”

Utterly crawling with wall to wall cliches. Pizzas are delivered, not ‘family care’.
