Relationship organisations are at their busiest at this time of year.

Many families around the country will be facing January with uncertainty.  The worry of the recession and inevitable christmas overspending, demanding teenagers and difficulties with partners all seem to come to a head post christmas.

Its time to get in touch with organisations that can help you work through some of the difficulties.  Relationships Scotland,  Family Mediation Scotland and SMC (formerly Scottish marriage care) are government funded charities who support families experiencing relationship problems, separation and conflict.  Services are provided throughout Scotland and can be contacted via phone or website at the following:-
