Who Kent Family Hub is for

You might be a parent or carer looking for help for yourself or a child. You could be a young person trying to find activities or support. In these pages online for Kent Family Hub and at our family hubs around Kent, you can get help for parents, carers, young people and children of any age – from newborns to 19-year-olds, or 25-year-olds with special educational needs and disabilities.

The help doesn’t just start when you become a parent. Find groups, support or learn what to expect during the first 1001 days of your child’s life, through pregnancy and until your child is 2-years-old.

You can also find help as a professional, working or volunteering with families in Kent. Skill up or find resources to help you support parents, carers, children and young people you work with.
