Recently accredited with a Families First Quality Award, the service provides high quality information, advice and assistance for children, young people, families and professionals across the city.

    The service utilised a family centred, strengths based and inclusive approach, to identify the most appropriate support that will meet the wellbeing needs of both individuals and the family as a whole.
