Diocese of Chichester

Family Support Work (FSW) and the Mothers’ Union, Chichester Diocese, are building on their already strong partnership with a move to share offices. Mothers' Union will be moving into the FSW offices at Garton House, 22 Stanford Avenue, Brighton.

For over 100 years these two organisations have worked sharing a journey together of supporting families, for FSW here in Sussex and for the MU both in Sussex and across the world. During this time we have worked together on so many projects that they really are good friends.

Being able to share an office and offer support to each other will only go to strengthen the joint mission of helping families grow and survive the ever-changing world, and the demands that this brings for them.

Alyson Heath, Chairman of FSW, said, “We are delighted that the Mothers’ Union will soon be joining us in Garton House. FSW and Mothers’ Union have worked closely together over many years in support of vulnerable families and having them share our offices will enable the two organisations to forge even greater links “

Mothers’ Union Chichester Diocesan President, Karen Hill, said, ”It was for us a natural move, as our core values and Christian beliefs mirror each other. We both believe in supporting families, and I look forward to strengthening our links as we move forward in these difficult times.”
