Dudley Families First - Voluntary & Community Sector Event

There are a series of national reforms relating to children’s social care and education being led by the DfE, that as a Local Authority we are required to deliver against. You can find a useful summary of these changes here: https://www.ccinform.co.uk/practice-guidance/childrens-social-care-reforms/

The main principle underpinning the reforms is about providing help to families earlier and preventing the escalation into statutory social care services.

We are currently planning for delivery of the Families First Partnership Programme and we would like to engage with the voluntary and community sector in Dudley to discuss more about the Families First Partnership Programme, hear more from you about the services you currently provide to children and families and discuss how we can work more collaboratively around the Family First agenda.

We would like to welcome you to one of our Family Hubs on Wednesday the 17th September to begin these conversations.
