Ely Children's Centre

About this organisation

Children’s centres are service hubs where children under five years old and their families can receive seamless integrated services and information. By 2010, every community will be served by a Sure Start Children’s Centre, offering permanent universal provision across the country, ensuring that every child gets the best start in life.

These services vary according to centre but may include:

Support for parents - including advice on parenting, local childcare options and access to specialist services for families.
Child and family health services - ranging from health screening, health visitor services to breast-feeding support.
Helping parents into work - with links to the local Jobcentre Plus and training.
The Government’s vision, set out most recently in the Children’s Plan, is that every child and young person should have the opportunity to fulfil their potential. Sure Start is at the forefront of transforming the way services are delivered for young children and their families.
