Dudley’s Early Help Strategy

Early Help has been defined in Dudley as follows:

‘Early Help is taking action early and as soon as possible in order
to provide support where problems are emerging for children,
young people and their families, or with a population most at risk of
developing problems. Early Help may occur at any point in a child or
young person’s life.’

As set out in Working Together to Safeguard Children 2018, effective Early Help relies upon local agencies working together to:

  • Identify children and families who would benefit from Early
    Help;
  • Undertake an assessment of the need for Early Help;
  • Provide targeted Early Help services to address the assessed
    needs of a child and their family which focuses on activity to
    significantly improve the outcomes for the child

For more information on Early Help please view the Dudley Early Help page, or speak to a Designated Safeguarding Lead.
