Family Hub Service Redesign

Family Hub Support

We understand your ambition to create a seamless 0–19 (or 25 for SEND) offer that meets families’ needs at the earliest opportunity—while making the best use of limited resources.

With a strong track record of supporting areas to shape, develop and embed Family Hubs, we can work with you to design and implement flexible, evidence-informed approaches tailored to your local context.

How we can help

We offer end-to-end support—from vision and planning to implementation and evaluation.

Our consultancy offer includes:

• Needs assessments – reviewing local data, mapping current provision, and pinpointing gaps in parenting and Home Learning Environment (HLE) support to inform targeted action.
• Service redesign – reconfiguring existing provision, whether in-house or commissioned, to create integrated, accessible pathways for families.
• Evaluation and benchmarking – assessing effectiveness and impact and using findings to drive continuous improvement.
• Strategic support and challenge – helping you set ambitious yet achievable goals and maintaining pace through constructive challenge.
• Integrated leadership development – facilitating the creation of cross-sector leadership teams that unite family support, health, education, early years, and the voluntary sector.
• Co-design workshops & visioning events – engaging partners, families, and communities to shape solutions that are relevant and accessible.
• Process, pathway & governance design – ensuring services are joined-up, sustainable, and well-coordinated.
• Commissioning & service alignment – supporting recommissioning and integration of services to maximise reach and effectiveness.
• Change management guidance – helping leaders and frontline teams adapt to new ways of working with clarity and confidence.
• Workforce training – equipping staff with the skills and confidence to deliver integrated, evidence-based support in line with Families First and Best Start expectations.

• Collaborative – we work alongside you and your partners, building on local strengths.
• Flexible – we adapt to your pace, capacity, and priorities.
