Liverpool launches 12th Family Hub

Liverpool City Council has launched its 12th Family Hub as the council looks to establish a hub in every neighbourhood.

This is the 6th hub that has been opened in 2026 so far, adding to the six that had opened previously.

The 12th hub, known as the Best Start Everton Family Hub and Nursery School, officially became a Family Hub on Thursday 23 April with a special launch event to mark the occasion.

Building on the well-established strengths of Liverpool’s Children’s Centres, a Family Hub is a place where all families with children and young people aged 0-19 (or 25 if the young person has special educational needs or disabilities) can access coordinated support, information, advice, and activities.

The other eleven operational Family Hubs in Liverpool are Clubmoor, Fountains, Granby, Picton, Speke, Stoneycroft, Fazakerley, Kensington, Belle Vale, Wavertree and Dovedale.

There were previously only five Family Hubs in Liverpool, but the council has expanded this number to twelve, ensuring every community can access a hub close to home.

Cllr Joanne Kennedy, Cabinet Member for Employment, Educational Attainment & Skills at Liverpool City Council, said: “Our ambition was that every neighbourhood in Liverpool can access their own Family Hub, and this expansion means that we’re now well on our way to delivering that.

“Over recent weeks we’ve had a flurry of launch events at the new hubs, and I’ve been blown away by how many families have turned up to see what their local hub has to offer. This just shows how needed these hubs are and will be to providing families with the right support within their own communities.

“Family Hubs are there to ensure families can find a multitude of resources and activities designed to support their health, education, and wellbeing, in a supportive environment.

“Please go and visit your local Family Hub once it’s open to find out more about the services they can offer.”
