RBKC Early Help Family Hub North & South have shared information with us about The Circle of Security Parenting Programme; an evidence-based parenting programme designed to support and enhance the attachment between parents and caregivers and their children. This programme is specifically geared towards children aged between four months and seven years old. It provides valuable insights and strategies to caregivers, helping them better understand and respond to their children's emotional needs.

The North and South Family Hubs Activity Calendars have been released for the Spring 2026 term.

They include a range of sessions and activities for children, parents and carers to meet others, have fun, play and learn.
