How can we help you and your family?
The Starting Well Partnership supports parents, families, children and young people across Worcestershire. We have 6 teams working out of our Family Hubs located in districts across the county.
Families in each of the districts are supported by Health Visitors, Parenting Support Workers, Community Nursery Nurses, School Health Nurses, Health Care Assistants, Volunteer Coordinators, Community Health Connectors, Business Support Officers and Administrators. They provide support, advice and clinics from our Family Hubs, community spaces, schools and GP surgeries.
Our teams include staff from Herefordshire and Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust, Barnardos, Redditch and Bromsgrove District Councils and Action for Children. More information about the partnership and organisations can be found on the About Us page.
