We work to give parents the opportunity to have a say in what services should be established in their community and to become actively involved in managing them. Following consultation with local parents, a 10 year plan has been developed that will enable families to access:
- Quality play, learning and childcare experiences for their children
- Enhanced healthcare services, including advice about child health and development
- Support for children with special needs, including access to specialist services
- Family support delivered directly in the home
- Advice and information, including counselling and benefits advice
A partnership board has been set up to oversee the programme and includes parents and staff representing Social Services, Health, Education, the Borough Council, and the voluntary sector. |
