Family Information Service Directory


We are experiencing technical issues with our directory.

Please call the Families First Information Service 01472 326292 to speak to someone for childcare, activities and support services information.

The Families First Information Service is a free, impartial information service for families with children aged 0-19 years. We work really hard to provide you with up to date, accurate information about services and activities for children and families. You can search our directory for information about activities that are taking place in your area. We also work with services in and around the surrounding areas to ensure that you can find a service that you may need at any given time.

We constantly work on the information provided, the way in which you can search for information and we welcome all feedback about the directory from you! If you feel there is something you would like to see on here, know about an activity or service that would benefit from being featured or find any incorrect information please let us know [email protected].
