Family Hubs

Everyone is welcome at St Helens Family Hubs! We provide a range of services to ensure that children have the best start in life.

Our Family Hubs are for families with babies, children and young people from birth until they reach the age of 19 (or up to 25 for young people with special educational needs and disabilities).

Family Hubs will be a one stop shop for everything you need to know about bringing up a child in St Helens. Family Hubs are welcoming, friendly and safe places for families where parents/ carers and their children can go to access support, information and services in one place.

Family Hubs will be run by trained professionals who are there to help families in a variety of ways, such as providing advice on parenting, connecting families with other services in the community, and helping families access benefits and financial assistance.

On the new Family Hub microsite, you will find information such as parenting advice, early years education, health and wellness programmes, activities and more.

If you are a parent or carer looking for support, or know someone who might benefit from the services offered at a Family Hub visit St Helens Family Hub.
