|June 24, 2025
Community support for struggling families in England has fallen significantly over the past 15 years, with data revealing that specialist children's services have plummeted by a third.
The number of family hubs and children's centres in England has reduced by more than a third since 2009, while spending on centres was cut by almost £1.4bn between 2010-11 and 2023-24, according to freedom of information data compiled from 108 local authorities by the charity Barnardo's. Access varies according to region in a "postcode lottery of support", the charity said.
