About Pause
Pause works with women who have experienced repeated pregnancies that result in children needing to be removed from their care.
Through an intense programme of support, it aims to break this cycle and give women the opportunity to reflect, tackle destructive patterns of behaviour and to develop new skills and responses that can help them create a more positive future. In doing so, we aim to prevent the damaging consequences of thousands more children being taken into care. For more information about pause please visit www.pause.org.uk
