The Department for Education (DfE) has published a local authority guide for the government’s Family Hubs and Start for Life programmes in England.
The programmes focus on helping local authorities to support families and work in partnership with voluntary, community and faith sectors to: help families overcome barriers to access help; identify health or safeguarding risks early; and reduce health and education disparities.
Sharne McLeane, Head of Early Learning and Childcare, Integrated Commissioning said “the development work into our application is well underway – more details of how to get involved to follow!”
