Four more Family Hubs opening this month
Families are invited to the launch of four more Family Hubs opening in the borough this January.
Wirral’s Family Hubs are based in the heart of communities and have been created to make services and support easily accessible to the people who need them.
The hubs provide a welcoming space and operate under a ‘single front door’ model, for families with children aged 0-19 (up to age 25 with SEND). They bring together existing family help services in one place to improve access to, and relationships between, families and the agencies who can help and support them.
The hubs focus on families, and every member of the family can be supported; from services and activities that help give babies a great start to life, to support for parents with parenting classes, midwifery, health visiting, infant feeding advice and perinatal mental health support, as well as advice on lifelong learning, employment and finances.
A friendly welcome awaits families at launches of the new hubs at:
Wirral Development Trust, which opens on Tuesday 16 January 2pm-4pm (Wirral Development Trust, Leasowe Millennium Centre, Moreton, CH46 1PQ)
