“Most parents want to do their best by their children and are increasingly expressing a desire for support to be better parents, first and foremost from friends and family but also from government.  Many parents and carers, regardless of background, feel that there are times in their lives when they need advice and support. Parents  are best placed to make choices for their children but all parents benefit from advice and high quality information and advice to help them make the best possible decisions.”

(HM Treasury, 2005, Support for parents; the best start for)

Wakefield Families Together

Wakefield Families Together brings services together, so that it’s easier for you to find and access the support you need, at the earliest opportunity.

We want children, young people, and families to tell us they are happy, healthy, and safe. Wakefield Families Together are about working on your behalf so that if you have a concern about your child or family member, you only need to have one conversation with us, and we can direct you to the right support. You can access this support through your child’s school, family hub, or in the local community.

To help us localise how we work with families across the Wakefield district, we have grouped our teams and partner organisations into six community ‘cluster’ areas, with nine family hubs. You can find your local Family Hub on the Wakefield Families Together website here: Family Hubs – Wakefield Families Together
