Northwest Leicestershire Family Hubs

Family Hubs Leicestershire are a welcoming one-stop shop for families, children, and young people across Leicestershire. Our hubs work in partnership with local organisations to provide advice, information, and resources to help families navigate every stage of life—from pregnancy, through early years, childhood, and into young adulthood.

We offer a wide range of support, including:

  • Guidance for parents and carers on topics like moving to secondary school, communication and language development, and online safety.
  • Clubs and activities for children and young people, such as SEND Saturday Clubs, play sessions, construction clubs, and empowerment workshops.
  • Special sessions for events like the Early Years Festival, including baby massage demonstrations and creative activities.
  • Resources and advice for families facing financial worries, mental health challenges, and additional needs.
  • Information on local services, including mental health support, domestic abuse help, drugs and alcohol support, and more.

All families are welcome, and many activities are free to attend. Our hubs are designed to help you find the right support, connect with others, and build strong relationships within your community.

To find your nearest Family Hub, explore our website or contact us for more information.
