This week (4-10 March) is LGBT+ Adoption and Fostering week. It’s a week to celebrate those who have gone through the process and to raise awareness for those wanting to adopt or foster.

The hubs make services easier to navigate and access.

More than 2,500 local children enjoyed an activity-packed Christmas thanks to Wirral’s Holiday Activities with Food (HAF) Programme.

The hubs bring together existing family help services in one place.

Adoption in Merseyside has found families for over 380 children in the past 5 years. However, there are currently 55 children in Merseyside still waiting for an adoptive family.

Parents across Wirral are reminded that applications for admission into Wirral primary schools next autumn must be made by Monday 15 January 2024.

The Hubs operate under a ‘single front door’ model, allowing services to work together more easily to engage with families while allowing easy access for residents.

Bags of Christmas gifts are on their way to children and young people in Wirral, thanks to the generosity of residents and organisations from across the borough.
