Families First for Children Pathfinder Grants

We've been selected as a Families First for Children Pathfinder so we can provide a unique opportunity to deliver pioneering reforms to support Children, Young People and Families.  

The projects will be agreed with input from a range of stakeholders across Children’s Services, Health, and the Voluntary and Community Sector. The projects will align to the Dorset Children, Young People and Families Plan.
