Overview of Prevention and Early Help

Prevention and Early Help is about recognising the strengths in children and families, walking alongside them, and ensuring that they have the right help at the right time, so that they can thrive.

The Prevention and Early Help System is not defined by a single service or department; it represents a shared responsibility across our entire partnership.

The Prevention and Early Help System Board is responsible for delivery of an effective and mature system. Together, we are committed to offering quality universal advice and support, as well as the early identification of additional needs, proactive engagement, and the coordinated delivery of a network of support services that respond as challenges begin to emerge. We will always work together to see the signs, listen with empathy, and act with purpose.

A wide range of agencies make up the system and children and families are at the heart of this.
