Staffordshire Moorlands Family Hub

Family Hub

All of our Staffordshire Family Hubs carry a COVID Secure Certification.

We have a robust risk assessment in place and monitor the CO2 levels within our hubs when in use. If you have any questions, or worried about attending then please contact us to discuss your concerns.


 

The purpose of a family hub is to ensure children get the best start in life and that their families are supported to help them achieve this.

At a family hub, children and families  can access a range of services, participate in activities and get information about what is going on locally. Family hubs work together with lots of other partners that offer support to families including:,

  • Jobcentre Plus
  • Adult learning
  • Health Visitors
  • Midwives

We also have some targeted/specialist services such as family support services as we all can need a little help sometimes.  

Family hubs are designed to serve the local community, your local centre will depend on the district that you live in. If you access a children’s centre service outside of your county additional charges may apply.

To find out what activities we have being delivered within your local community please click on the Staffordshire Moorlands Activities Timetable link under downloads at the bottom of this page, alternatively you can also visit our Facebook page.
