Sheffield Family Hubs

Sheffield has 7 Family Hubs (formerly known as family centres) and together with their outreach sites they cover all areas of the city and provide advice, support activities and services for families with children under-5 as well as maternity care and support for expectant parents.
Come along to your local Family Hub to meet other families, get support and join in with free activities. What’s on in each Family Hub varies according to the needs of the local community but typically you can come to:

  • Preparation for parenthood groups
  • Health support and clinics run by Midwives and Health Visitors
  • Toddler groups
  • Fun learning activities with your family

And get help and support with:

  • Getting into training and work
  • Information and advice about feeding your baby, healthy eating for your family, active lifestyles, 2 year old dental care, home safety etc.
  • Free and low cost healthy start vitamins
  • Registering your child’s birth (by appointment at selected centres only)

Why have Family Centres become Family Hubs?

As part of the Government’s new Family Hub & Start for Life programme our current Family Centres will be transformed into Family Hubs, building upon the existing services that are in place to support families from pregnancy through a child’s early years until they reach adulthood.
