As Safer Sleep Week gets underway, Wirral’s Family Hubs are reminding parents they’re here to offer practical, trusted support with all aspects of caring for a baby – including creating a safe sleep environment. By working hand in hand with the 0–19 Health and Wellbeing Service, the hubs make it easier for families to access clear, consistent guidance so every child has the safest possible start.
Wirral Council has welcomed the findings of Ofsted’s focused visit to children’s services, which confirm that the Integrated Front Door (IFD) “continues to respond swiftly and effectively” to contacts about vulnerable children.
Last week to celebrate Children’s Mental Health Week, Family Hubs across Wirral invited parents to take part in a self‑care workshop delivered by Wirral Mind. The session gave parents an opportunity to learn practical ways to support their own wellbeing and create calmer routines at home.
