Somerset Early Help Advisory Service

Description

To support early years professionals to provide appropriate intervention early in the life of a child by sharing knowledge, guidance and advice, and delivering high-quality training.

We focus our work across three areas, school readiness, children for whom English is an additional language (EAL) and children’s mental health and wellbeing, It has been recognised that good early years provision can make a positive impact on a child’s learning and development narrowing the gap and ensuring that children are ready for the next step in their learning.

We offer training, advice, resource sharing, signposting and joined-up working with various early help partners across the county to ensure providers have the skills and knowledge to provide timely early help (early intervention) to children and families in their care. To have a confidential discussion how we can help supporting a child’s needs and how to best move forward, please contact us directly.
