The Red Hen Project

Cambridge, UK

In an ideal world there would be absolutely no need for Red Hen to exist. But the world that we live in has named Cambridge as ‘the least equal city in the UK’. In this, our 20th year, there is even more need for us to exist than when we began. Our family workers manage large and ever-changing caseloads and deal with more and more complex issues as families face such difficult and uncertain times. Red Hen was founded on the belief that education is crucial in breaking the cycle of poverty that can exist in the socially and economically deprived area that we serve. We have always been about removing barriers to learning and working to forge good relationships between home and school. Our schools can make referrals knowing that practical assistance and expert advice will be available quickly, and delivered with sensitivity and understanding. It is no secret that there is significant pressure on all of our social care system. We provide a crucial way in for families to find the support and help they need when in times of difficulty. Ideally before things escalate to a crisis. That is our strength – early, practical, expert support when and where it is needed. The real strength of the project, of course, lies in its staff - their accessibility, their focus on listening and encouraging, their non-judgemental practical help and advice. All hugely valued by families and schools in all of our evaluations. And they do it with sensitivity, warmth and genuine care.
