Away From It All (AFIA) is a very successful scheme that supports family life in a practical and important way. The scheme is funded by members and enables families or individuals to have a break during the year. The 'holiday’ can take several forms depending on the need of the family.
Referrals are accepted through the clergy, Mothers’ Union officers and sometimes doctors or local government officials. The scheme is run by a team under the leadership of Anne Sykes.
