Bolton Start Well

Have your say on the proposed changes to Bolton Start Well Centres

Bolton Council are currently asking for your views on the proposed changes to Bolton Start Well Centres.  Currently there are three main Start Well Centres, supporting families and children aged 0 - 5 years. Each of the 3 centres have with their own governance board, that support the 14 link Start Well Centres across the borough. 

Bolton Council are proposing to:

• Rename the Start Well Centres, calling them Start Well Family Hubs:  The hubs will then support families from pregnancy onwards - until their children are 19 years old, or older for those with special needs. 
• Change the way the governance boards work, by having a Start Well Family Hub in each neighbourhood, reporting to one boroughwide board, instead of three.
• Include the Bright Meadows Centre in Breightmet as a Start Well Family Hub, alongside the other 17 centres.

For further information on the review please watch this short presentation.
