Early help

Information about our early help service and how to make a referral if you are worried about a child.

If you believe a child needs some additional help and support without raising immediate safeguarding concerns, a good approach is for you and the family you are supporting to complete an Early Help Assessment (EHA) together.

The aim of the Early Help Clinic is to provide support and guidance to all practitioners who are working with families, children and young people at an Early Help level.

The supporting families toolkit provides practice guidance, service contacts and tools for practitioners.
