Liverpool launches 12th Family Hub
by Educate Magazine April 23, 2026 · Latest What's On
Liverpool City Council is set to launch its 12th Family Hub this week as it looks to establish a hub in every neighbourhood.
This marks the sixth Family Hub the council has opened in 2026, building on the six already established.
Liverpool City Council will officially launch the new Best Start Everton Family Hub and Nursery School as its 12th Family Hub on Thursday, 23 April (10am–12pm), with a special event to mark the occasion.
There will be a range of fun family activities available as well as information, advice, and support. Food and refreshments will also be provided. There’s no need to book, everyone is welcome and can just drop in.
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:
- Clubmoor
- Fountains
- Granby
- Picton
- Speke
- Stoneycroft
- Fazakerley
- Kensington
- Belle Vale
- Wavertree
- 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.”
