What We Do

The Family Hubs Network delivers consultancy and advocacy, as well as ensuring Network members are informed and consulted about Family Hubs developments.

Advocacy

The Family Hubs Network developed the Family Hub concept by gathering evidence from innovating local authorities, and informed government policy. We continue to advocate for effective implementation of Family Hubs and a culture of continuous improvement.

With our extensive network of stakeholders across public, voluntary and private sectors, we consult widely and frequently to gain insights into frontline experience gather good practice, and understand the factors which enable, or hinder, good outcomes. We share key learning points with our network, and inform decision makers and policy developers so a wide range of perspectives are brought together to progress Family Hubs policy and practice. We want all families to benefit and, in particular, outcomes for vulnerable and disadvantaged families to be transformed.

The Network

Everyone interested in Family Hubs is welcome to join our Network of over 485 Family Hubs, consisting of more than 2,500 people, who represent public, private and voluntary sectors. They work in every field relevant to supporting children and strengthening families, from local authorities, health, education and police to charities providing family support and specialist services, local community groups and faith organisations.

The Network gathers and shares good practice, and keeps members abreast of Family Hub implementation and developments, including government initiatives and the relevant work of other stakeholders. We continue to investigate how Family Hubs and local networks of support can achieve their objectives effectively and continue to improve, through learning from each other.
