Early Help Leaflet

The purpose of Early Help is to prevent issues from getting worse by offering support at the right time. Any professional working with a family, such as those based in schools, health services, or in voluntary sector organisations, can offer early help services by responding to identified needs in order to offer advice, support and intervention. Early Help works best when it is offered to the whole family and when services are delivered jointly by professionals. Early Help is everyone’s business.

Warrington Borough Council’s Early Help teams provide support to children, young people and their families as soon as difficulties start to emerge. The Early Help teams work with families and professionals to offer a range of support services:

• Children centres

• Early years education and childcare

• Support for children (0-4) with special educational needs and

disabilities (SEND)

• Family outreach

• Parenting programmes

• Youth Service

• Ask Ollie

• Families Information Service
