Our Purpose
Unlocking Potential is the charity that supports schools and communities to ensure no child or family struggles alone with their social, emotional and mental health needs. We provide flexible, over-time, multi-disciplinary therapeutic support that meets children and families where they are, and enables them to feel safe, understood and the best version of themselves.
Vision
Everyone feels supported, equipped and able to achieve their potential.
Mission
Our mission is to provide tailored therapeutic support to more children, while training the practitioners of the future to build holistic, resilient social systems that equip children and their families with the confidence, tools, and skills to thrive at school and within their communities.
Values
Individual: Everything we do is about the individual and what is right for them – no two children, families or schools are the same.
Innovative: We look for new solutions, evolving our thinking and approach – ensuring the use of bold, co-designed practice.
Collaborative: We choose to work with others to find the best solutions – we are stronger together.
Overview
We launched our new programme in September 2025, initially as a pilot working with families across Wandsworth, with aims to be able to expand and continue beyond this. This service will offer flexible, relationship-based support to families facing a range of challenges, helping them navigate systems, strengthen protective factors, and improve outcomes for children.
