Family Hubs
Dudley's five family centres have been transformed into new local family hubs, as part of Dudley's Family Hub Network.
A range of agencies and organisations work together across the family hub network to support families, with the aim of providing access to support and advice.
The local hubs offer the following support for children and young people from birth to 19 years (or to 25 years for those with learning difficulties or disabilities). Family hubs offer a range of activities that can support your child’s overall development including stay and play sessions and Talking Tots sessions .
Talking Tots
Talking Tots is a group run by Family Hub workers, trained by the Speech and Language Therapy Team.
Why should I bring my child to Talking Tots?
- You (parents and carers) will learn new ways to help your child with their talking.
- You will meet other parents and children.
- You will understand more about Speech and Language
- It is lots of fun!
