Hello,
As the eagle-eyed among you may have noticed, we are hosting a new app on Mumsnet - Sorting out Separation from the Department for Work & Pensions, here.
Aimed at couples who are considering or going through divorce or separation, the app offers tools, services and links to organisations offering support, including Mumsnet. It's part of the DWP's Help and support for separated families' programme. This app is aimed at separated couples and parents who wish to work together to sort out issues like child maintenance and access arrangements, avoiding statutory child maintenance schemes where possible. Obviously it won't be right for everyone though, for example in cases where domestic violence or abuse (including coercion or control) has taken place or is ongoing, when the statutory route.) may be preferred.
The app is very much a work in progress, and the DWP tell us they would welcome feedback on how the web app could be improved, so please do take a look and send your feedback to [email protected], or post your thoughts on this thread.
Mumsnet isn't taking any payment for hosting this app; we're involved with it because we think that if separating parents are going to be signposted towards non-governmental sources, Mumsnet will be a great place for them to find peer to peer support and advice.
Thanks
