Find Your Local Family Information Service

Each area of the UK has a Family Information Service (FIS) that provides free, impartial information and advice on a variety of services for children and young people (from birth to 25 years old), parents and families. In Northern Ireland, there are around 30 Family Support Hubs providing similar help. Your local Family Information Service is a great place to start if you want to find help with childcare; education; social care and wellbeing services; housing; bereavement; divorce; counselling; domestic abuse; drugs and alcohol; employment; financial help; libraries; sport; and parent and toddler groups.

Family Information Serives also offer Additional Support Needs for children and young people with disabilities, complex health needs, those who require respite care, information on disability sport and supported child care. You'll find your local Family Information Service is useful in the long-term too, with many offering help for children up to the age of 18 and beyond. Some offer support for older teeens getting into employment, education, volunteering, community projects, and with mental health.

When life throws you curveballs, big or small, it can be difficult to know who to turn to, especially if you don't want to burden family or friends. So browse through our local Family Information Service listings to find a place to offload your troubles and start finding solutions.
