Welcome to Family Hubs Leicestershire

At the heart of our communities, our Family Hubs have been established to support families, children and young people across Leicestershire.  Working with partner organisations our Hubs provide a one-stop shop and offer advice, information and resources to help families navigate every stage of life; from pregnancy, through your child’s early years, later childhood and into young adulthood.

Have your say!

How can we help more young people in Leicestershire take their next step into education, training or work? We’d love to hear your views.

Our draft strategy for post-16 learners sets out plans to expand apprenticeships and work-based learning, strengthen careers guidance, improve support for young people with SEND and help learners prepare for adulthood.

Please complete the consultation questions by Monday 7 December. Whether you work directly with young people or bring a different perspective, your feedback will help shape these plans.
