Our programme is driven by those we seek to support. By developing relationships within the community to support the development of the tools we use, we have been able to develop relationships of trust, de-mystifying the UoR and placing the UoR at the heart of multi-agency programmes directed at the aspirations of under-represented groups. The programme works in partnership within the local community with organisations, such as the Whitely Community Development Association, Home Start, Reading Borough Council Social Work, Alana House and with the mums themselves<\/p>\n<p>There are also many, many examples of individual successes, including three women now in work, three in college, one withdrawing from medication for depression, three having left bad marriages and several women having signed up to weight loss regimes \u2013 as examples, and attributed by the mums themselves to the Marvellous Mums programme. Interest in our programme has extended to China, with a colleague in Xi\u2019an awaiting a funding bid which aims to develop Marvellous Mums in a rural community, in her province.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Prof. Fuller\u2019s research, visit her profile page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reading.ac.uk\/education\/about\/staff\/c-l-fuller.aspx\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.
