Family Services
Information about our Family First service and who to contact if you need help with family matters.
Family First is a free, confidential advice and information resource in East Renfrewshire.
Aim
Our aim is to provide support by working in partnership with families.
We can help and enable you to access local services professional and voluntary, ensuring the children get the best possible start in life.
We understand that families can run into difficulties, emotionally, financially or even physically that may prevent us doing the simplest of things.
Whatever you'd like to speak about, our team can offer support and advice on issues surrounding school, health, home, money, parenting, additional support needs (with our without diagnosis) and confidence building.
Information and Resources
We've compliled a range of resources and useful FAQs of local and national organisations, helplines and programmes, which families the team have worked with found useful and supportive.
