In April, the government announced the 75 upper tier local authorities (LAs) that are eligible for funding to deliver the Family Hubs and Start for Life programme, a programme jointly overseen by the Department for Education (DfE) and the Department of Health and Social Care.

The departments have now published the programme guidance and sign-up form for eligible LAs. Eligible LAs have until 31 October 2022 to sign up to the programme, though early sign up is encouraged.

The programme guidance and sign-up form can be found here.
