Family Hubs

Family Hubs are a new way of bringing together all the support a family may need, from pregnancy through to young people turning 19 (or 25 if they have a special educational need or disability). 

Family hubs operate as a network of services within your neighbourhood to provide accessible and connected services and support to all families.

These services will work together to provide high quality support for the whole family, so that children, young people, and families will get the right help at the right time.

Please note, Ince Family Hub (next door to school) is linked to the Family Hub at Mornington Road.  If you have any questions about the Ince Hub please contact the Mornington Road site.
