Epsom Downs Primary School & Children's Cnetre

About

Family Centres are part of the wider Family Service to support families with children 0-11 that are the most vulnerable.

We work with children aged 0-11 years and their families. The services are targeted and referrals come via the Early Help Hub. The new approach builds on the Family Resilience model based on early intervention and support.

We work closely with partner agencies in the community and can support families in the home, in the community or at the Centre. We work in partnership with three other Family Centres:

  • YMCA Family Centre, Horley
  • Red Oak Family Centre, Merstham
  • Welcare Family Centre, Redhill

We work collaboratively to offer evidenced based parenting programmes to equip and support families with the tools they need.

If you require support from Surrey Children's Services, please complete the Request for Support Form  and email to cspa@surreycc.gov.uk or alternatively you can phone 0300 470 9100.
