Targeted and intensive support for vulnerable children, young people and families

We can provide support and services to the children, young people and families who most need them. 

Our Family and Adolescent Support Service aims to provide services that: 

  • promote the health, education and social development of children within their own families 
  • prevent children suffering from harm and abuse 
  • protect children who have been harmed 
  • provide additional help for children who are already receiving early help 
  • help young people up to the age of 25 at risk of being involved in serious youth violence and exploitation 

If you think someone could benefit from our support, report your concerns about a child
