Early Help Information
Early help means providing support as soon as a problem emerges, at any stage in a child's life, from the foundation years through to the teenage years.
In Redcar and Cleveland, we will work together to ensure that children, young people, and their families receive the right help as early as possible to support them to thrive and fulfil their dreams.
In order to do this, we have worked with our partners to develop a multi-agency Early Help Strategy for 2021-25. This sets out our collective principles and priorities for supporting our children and families.
The full Early Help Strategy is available to download below:
