Early Help and Support for Families at Sponne School
Early Help focuses on providing support to parents and carers during challenging times. Whether it's one child, an adult, or the entire family facing difficulties, assistance is available. You might be concerned about your child's health, development, or behaviour. You could also be dealing with worries related to finances, housing, or caring for a family member. Additionally, issues like domestic abuse, substance use, or crime may be impacting the family.
There are choices depending on your family's needs:
Children's Centres run groups and support sessions on a variety of topics. Our local children's centre is in Towcester on Islington Road. You can find more information, including upcoing events by visiting https://nctrust.co.uk/support-for-children-and-families/childrens-centres
Early Help Meetings with schools and other professionals offer support that is personal to your family's situation. For more information about Early Help and Support please visit https://nctrust.co.uk/support-for-children-and-families OR feel free to contact our Parent Support Advisor.
