How can we help you?

Have you got a question, but you don't know who to ask? We are here to help any family with children aged 0 to 19 in Worcestershire.

Examples of questions you may like to ask us:

  • "I have a new baby and I am new to the area, where could I go to get to know other mums?"
  • "My son is on half term next week, do you have any ideas about activities in Redditch that he could get involved with?"
  • "I am going back to work soon and would like to find out about childminders in Malvern for my daughter. Do you have a list of childminder contacts?"
  • "I have a 17 year old son and I'm worried that he's started smoking. Do you have any contacts for organisations that would be able to help me?"

The Family Information Service welcomes any parent with any question, from issues ranging from money matters to childcare to rights of working parents.
