RESOLVED - That:
This report seeks approval to enter into a call-off contract to
allow for further works to be delivered to ensure the
transformation (upgrade and refurbishment) of Alexandra
Children’s Centre, and that Oldham’s Family Hubs
programme will be able to deliver services in welcoming, safe, and
secure spaces.
Oldham Council, alongside 74 other LAs, met the government’s
criteria to receive a share of a ringfenced funding for Family Hub
development.
The expectations for delivery include providing a range of support
for families, children, and breastfeeding parents in key important
areas through different workstreams such as Parenting Support,
Infant Feeding, Home and Learning Environment, Mental Health, Start
for Life Offer and Parent Panels
