Early Help aims to deliver the right support, in the right place at the right time.
Support is offered to a family when a problem first emerges. The aim is to prevent the situation from becoming worse, and implement support and strategies for the family, to work together with practitioners to promote positive outcomes for all children.
Early Help can support a number of issues such as; debt, behaviour challenges, housing issues, mental health, drug and alcohol misuse and many many more.
Please ask Charlotte Stephens, Haidee Frost or your child's teacher for an Early Help assessment if you need some additional support.
