About The Family Wellbeing Hub

How We Support You

When you attend the Family Wellbeing Hub, you will meet our Health Improvement Senior, who will support you through a 1:1 Family Wellbeing Support Needs Assessment. This is:

  • A safe, supportive space
  • Led by you and what matters to your family
  • A chance to talk openly about what is going on at home, school, or in your child’s life
  • A place where you will be listened to without judgement

Together, we will:

  • Explore your concerns, worries and strengths
  • Understand your child’s needs in a neuroaffirming way
  • Agree a support plan that feels right for you

You don’t need to have the “right words” — we will go at your pace.

Your Support Plan

Your support plan may include:

  • Practical strategies to support behaviour, emotions or routines
  • Support around school challenges (including EBSNA) need to explain what this is even though also explained below
  • Understanding neurodiversity and your child’s needs
  • Help with your own wellbeing as a parent/carer
  • Advice on what support is available and how to access it


Learning & building confidence


You can also attend workshops and training (online or face-to-face), including:

  • Trauma-informed parenting
  • Neurodiversity awareness
  • Emotionally Based School Non‑Attendance (EBSNA)
  • Self-harm and suicide prevention
  • Mental health and wellbeing
  • Screen time and sleep support


These are designed to give you practical tools you can use at home or school 

You are not alone
You can join our Parent/Carer Peer Support Group, alongside our parent/carer peer support volunteers Shona and Amanda, & Emma our group facilitator, where you can:

  • Meet other parents who understand what you’re going through
  • Share experiences in a safe, supportive space
  • Feel less isolated and more confident
  • Access peer and professional support together

Many parents describe this service as a “lifeline”.
