Sopwell & Verulam Children's Centre

Welcome to the Sopwell & Verulam Children's Centre

Children’s Centres are being set up all over the Country to support local young families.

Your local Children’s Centre provides information about all local services for children aged 0-4 and their families. It’s aim is to provide children with the best start in life by bringing together all relevant services for young children and their families, and therefore should be needs led by the local community.

“The Government’s vision is a Sure Start Children’s Centre for every community providing all families with young children with access to high quality early years provision and other health and family support services, as well as improved support for their children’s transition into school. They will also support parents who are seeking to return to work with employment related services, which will help lift families out of poverty.”
