Children's centres

Childrens centres girl with crayonsOur children's centres play an essential part in helping to ensure children, families, and communities get the best start in life.

Our children's centres

We run around 200 children's centres throughout rural, urban and inner-city England, helping over 90,000 children and families get the early support they need.


Providing families with the emotional and practical support they need

We're there for every child. And every family. In every community.

With specialised support for children with disabilities, links with health professionals and inclusive services for those with even the most complex and challenging needs, we're there with the support families need from the very start.


Flexibility is key to helping those who need it most

We adapt to what works best for families as we know traditional ways of accessing support isn't always what they need.

Providing flexible and accessible support, such as providing outreach in their homes and a project worker who speaks their language, means we can help them in the most effective way possible.

Building relationships with a 'whole family' approach

We give families a sense of ownership, and get them engaged with what's going on. The more children and families are involved, the more effective the services will be.

Children and families grow together - nurturing strong relationships that will have a positive impact on the child's development for years to come.
