Family Hubs Newsletter

Family Hubs are a new innovation coming to Birmingham in the summer of 2023. They will be a ‘one stop shop’ bringing a range of organisations and professionals together in one place, to offer services, advice, guidance and support on a wide range of family and parenting issues. These include infant feeding, mental health, parenting support, SEND, getting into work, debt advice, and health issues to name a few. 

The first part of the Family Hubs programme to be rolled out is the ’Best Start for Life’ offer, which focuses on the youngest children. It aims to help families find the services and support available to them from the time of their baby’s conception until it is 2 years old – the first critical 1001 days where babies lay down the foundations for lifelong emotional and physical health. 

Each month, a newsletter will be published packed with the latest information. 

Birmingham City Council and partners have now launched the ‘Best Start for Life’ website as part of the Family Hubs programme.
