Providing early help to our children and families at Much Marcle Primary means we are more effective in promoting support as soon as we can.

Early help means providing support as soon as a problem emerges, at any point in a child’s life. This could include:

• Family relationships.
• Behaviours that are challenging.
• Housing and financial issues.
• Emotional and mental health.
• Safety in the community.
• Any other issues affecting your family.

How to Access the Right Help When You Need It

If you are experiencing family difficulties, you may want to try and discuss your concerns with someone you know well such as:

• Family and friends.
• GP or other health professional.
• Mrs Davies at Much Marcle.
• You could also search on the Talk Community Directory for information on a wide range of areas.
