This survey is for parents and carers of babies, children, and young people up to age 19 (or 25 with Special Educational Needs and Disability).
Consultation activities are also taking place face-to-face, including with children and young people.
We want Family Hubs to be welcoming, friendly and accessible places, where services join to support families with children of all ages (0-19 or 25 with a special educational need) to meet their needs. Lewisham will be opening the first Hub in Clyde Nursery in April 2023 with 3 or 4 others being opened later in the year.
As well as Family Hubs, there will be other buildings and spaces across the borough where services will be made available, as well as an online offer of information.
We want to ensure that children and young people have the best start in life so the Family Hubs will include programmes and services focused on supporting expectant and new parents from conception until their baby is aged two years old. These are known as ‘Start for Life Services’ and include:
The Hubs will also provide support to children as they grow up through adolescence to adulthood. This may include youth activities, mentoring, sexual health, substance misuse services and career guidance.
If you have an immediate need for support, please go to Lewisham’s website for information about the services available. (https://lewisham.gov.uk)
