Sorry to hear that singlemammy. I don't know of any help available for people moving. Hopefully someone who has moved will be along soon.

Are you not able to just keep the bullies away from your children and try and build up support where you are?

Hi, I did this a few years ago (I moved to the UK from abroad and built a new life for my 2 kids and myself).

I chose to move to a friendly village where everyone says hello, which has helped a lot. If you are clear about your requirements when speaking to your estate agent they should guide you towards an area where there are other families / good schools / kids' facilities etc.

Like you I have no family support, but my kids' school is supportive. Find a really caring school & move next to it (Or at least into the catchment area) - you won't regret it!

If your DC are little you could go to the local Children's Centre / toddler group in your new location once you've moved there.

Good luck!
