The work we do at SIL supports Sheffield Families to access the services they need. Our team of staff and volunteers work in Sheffield’s most disadvantaged communities supporting and helping parents to find the assistance they need.
Difficulties accessing childcare are significantly affecting the ability of parents in severe poverty to work, train or study. A quarter of the parents in severe poverty who responded had given up work, a third had turned down a job, and a quarter had not been able to take up education or training, all because of difficulties in accessing childcare.
