Impact report 2011

At Action for Children, it's important we make an impact. It's how we give the most vulnerable and neglected children the support they need to overcome their current difficulties, and equip them to deal with any issues they might face in the future.

Both Impact in action 2011 and our full impact report for 2011 prove we can do this. Most importantly, they also demonstrate that we really are there for as long as it takes.

You'll find out about the impact we have in terms of early intervention, intensive family support and cost-effectiveness. That's as well as how we work to keep children and young people safe and healthy, while improving their relationships and achievements in life.

Here's just some of the impact we've had in 2010-11:

• research by the University of Salford confirms we're successful in reducing concerns about neglect
• in 98% of the cases we assessed, the quality of family life either improved or stayed the same
  
• 90% of parents improved their parenting skills after using one of our intensive family support services
