Let's make this Easter half term eggs-tra special!

As one of ten local authorities selected to deliver the Families First for Children Pathfinder Programme in April 2024, Wirral Council will continue this innovative work and will support authorities across the North West to embed these changes under the new guidance.

Family life can be full of challenges, but support is always within reach at Wirral’s Family Hubs. Whether you’re looking for advice on parenting, need support with finances, or just want to connect with other families, the Family Hubs are here for you.

Wirral Council has led the regional partnership for the Step Up to Social Work programme for eight cohorts, successfully training more than 225 social workers.

The committee met at Wallasey Town Hall on Wednesday 5 March 2025.

Time, space, energy, love and commitment, these are the attributes that make a good foster carer. That’s according to Jacqui Andrews, one of Foster4’s Fostering Support workers.

Families across Wirral are set to benefit from an additional year of support as the government confirms a funding extension for the Families First for Children (FFC) Pathfinder.

Residents with a background in early years education could receive a cash incentive to enter the industry thanks to a pilot scheme.

Cllr Paul Stuart talks to us about his family's experience of fostering.

Wirral are in need of more foster carers to help keep siblings together by offering them room together in their hearts and home.

Although the long school holiday is fast approaching, there is still time to register for a free place at one of Wirral’s summer activity clubs.

Riverside Primary School in Seacombe and Wallasey’s Mosslands School are among just 61 schools across the country to be selected for investment through the Government's School Rebuilding Programme.
