Early Help
​​Early help is a team effort, not just one service. All agencies that work with children, young people and families are responsible for listening to their concerns and worries. They'll work closely with families to make sure they get the right support at the right time.
​
Our goal is to strengthen our relationships in communities, where we all work together, combining our ideas with other services to help support families.
​
Our Family Liaison Team are trained to lead on early help. Please get in touch with school direct to arrange an informal meeting with Mrs Elliot or Mrs Baran.

What families tell us about the Early Help team...
“It's been really positive. We've had lots of help, pointing us in the right direction, help with our daughter's behaviour, financial help, sleep advice. Play practitioner has helped us to do things together as a family.”
“I was always consulted and I had a good collaboration with the Early Help team…everything worked out good for us. The early intervention put us on the right path and gave my son a chance. Now my son is thriving being in the right environment with trained teachers in special needs. Made a huge difference for us as a family and for him personally. He's developing wonderfully. I'm very proud of him.”
The Circle of Support can give you an idea of how early help could help a family.

Our wider early help offer encompasses a range of service aimed to support families. Some services may offer a wide range of support, but others have a very specific focus.
