Support For Families

Essex Child and Family Wellbeing Service

The Family Hub offer we provide and the outcomes we aim to achieve ensures all families within Essex are supported from before children are born up to the age of 19 or 25 for those with Special Educational needs. We focus on making sure that everyone in Essex has the best possible start in life through having access to Free, high quality and easy access to services in your Community, School, Family Home or within a Family Hub.

Kids Inspire

Kids Inspire is a children’s mental health charity offering free trauma support to families who otherwise couldn’t afford it. Based in Essex and Suffolk, we provide personalised recovery plans through individual and group sessions, ensuring every child gets the help they need to thrive.

We want all children and families to get the support they need to recover from trauma and thrive.

While we always keep the child in the centre, we believe that the best outcomes are achieved when the adults around the child are included in the support. The focus is on helping families to reconnect and build positive relationships whereby every individual is able to express their needs and feelings in a healthy way.

“Since 2007 we have provided ‘family inclusive’, specialist services to children and young people affected by negative experiences or trauma. Supporting the child, and by approach, their family, to reclaim their lives and empower them to make positive choices - now and in the future.”  Therapist
