Support with family life (early help)

Overview

There are times in family life when things might be difficult or someone in the family is facing challenges. Things can get better much quicker for you, your child and family if you get help as soon as possible.

Early Help is not a designated team, it is a way of working together to support children, young people and their families.

They can offer support to families from pre-birth to adolescents with:

  • parenting
  • employment
  • school attendance
  • emotional wellbeing
  • anti-social behaviour
