Here's more detail
Description
We provide help and support to children, young people and their families from before birth up to the age of 19 (or 25 if they have special educational needs or a disability).
All families face challenges and sometimes need support. Early Help provides this support as soon as possible to tackle difficulties for children, young people and families before they become more serious.
We work with the whole family but children are at the centre of all we do. Every family has strengths and Early Help can work with you to build on these. With parental consent, we can involve professionals that will work together so you only have to tell us about your situation once.
Description
- What happens after a referral?
Once we receive a referral for an Early Help Assessment:
you will be contacted to discuss your request
- an Early Help Assessment may be completed with you. This will usually involve more discussions between you and (if you agree) other members of your family and relevant professionals to support you in the best way
- this support will be coordinated by a Lead Professional who will be your main point of contact
