It offers early help and support to children, young people aged 0-19yrs+ (25yrs for young people with special educational needs and disabilities) and their families across Lancashire.
The service is committed to minimising the impact of any disadvantage for Lancashire children by working with them, their families, and communities as early as possible, enabling them to get the right support, in the right way, at the right time.

Family support workers ensure the needs of children and families are appropriately considered in regards, to the family contact experience and that sessions are safe and secure, through appropriate risk assessments.
Work with service users to build confidence and continue supportive programmes in the community and other settings as required.
Family support workers will operate mainly (but not exclusively) during the daytime and twilight operational hours which normally could potentially range between 8am and up until around 6.00pm.
Flexible working is required to facilitate access and meet the needs of families some involvement in evening and weekend contact sessions therefore may be required.
