Naomi Adlington2025-11-27 10:49:282026-01-12 11:32:31Blog #12: Midships: Finding Balance in Justice and FairnessThere are many people, partners and organisations that support CHEXS with their time and expertise. We are continually grateful for their dedication.
Without this support and guidance we would not have been able to provide the GROWTH Programme and the family support services we offer.
CHEXS helps to consolidate the work of other organisations into a single vision. Our main aim is to partner with all parts of our society and work together to help families and children and to bring our community in Hertfordshire together.
