Clayton Family Hub
Family Hubs bring together services for families with children of all ages (0-19) or up to 25 with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). At the core of the offer is an enhanced Start for Life offer which provides support to parents and carers from a child’s conception until their second birthday.
Family Hubs are important because all families need a bit of help at times. In Manchester the family hubs will make it easier for parents to get support and ensure better outcomes for them and their children. Family hubs will act as one-stop-shops where families can access important services, making it easier for families to get the help they need, when they need it and improving the support on offer.
Here are some of the services offered at the Family Hub. If there is something which is not listed, it is likely it is provided elsewhere in the local area. Please contact your local hub for further information and a member of staff will help you access this:
