Family Hubs

Find out about Islington's three Family Hubs delivering our services for families with children ages 0 to 19, or up to 25 for special educational needs and disabilities, and how you can help us make the best of these in your area

Family Hubs bring together lots of different services for children and families to make a single ‘front door’, making it easier for families to get the help they need at the right time.

Family Hubs offer:

  • help and support to families from pregnancy up until age 19, or up to 25 for young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)
  • important Start for Life services - covering the critical 1,001 days from conception to age two
  • Bright Futures - whole family support to families with school-aged children up to 19 years old or 25 with SEND

Family Hubs are a welcoming and inclusive way into services. Whatever you need support with, everything you need is in one place.
