Early Help
Tuesday 25th September 2025
The Early Help conference takes place in central London on Thursday 25th September and is aimed at all those working to improve early support for children, young people and families.
Organised by Children & Young People Now, the focus of this twelfth annual conference will be on showcasing innovative, evidence-based work across the spectrum of early help.
Amidst reforms to children’s social care, ongoing budgetary pressures and increased emphasis on family help, the event will give you actionable insights to support you in improving outcomes for children, young people and families.
Sessions will examine creating the conditions for success locally and nationally, the crucial role of the voluntary sector, and topics ranging from working with neurodiversity to tackling serious youth violence.
