Early help brings together professionals who will work with your whole family, to try and improve things for everyone. Early help can include support with things like parenting, employment, anti-social behavior, and emotional well-being. They are for families who have children and young people up to the age of 19, or up to the age of 25 if SEND.
Having a team of professionals working with your family ensures you receive the most appropriate help to meet your needs. Helping your family EARLY, before things get worse and more difficult to change, has been shown to be more effective.
