Stakeholders
Families and Parents: throughout this document, references to ‘families’ and ‘parents’ should be read as including carers and other primary caregivers, such as kinship, foster carers and adoptive parents.
This Strategy has been co-developed by stakeholders including Early Years Services, SEND Birth to Five, Health Visiting, Midwifery, Public Health, Families First, Libraries, Therapy Services, Family Health, Lifestyles Service, Family Hubs, and VCFS organisations.
Together, they form a multiagency coalition that respects the distinct roles and cultures of each service, while committing to shared pathways, aligned plans and coordinated delivery. Through this partnership, Coventry will deliver a graduated offer that supports families early, removes barriers quickly, and adapts to distinct levels of need. By working collectively and focusing our resources where they will have the greatest impact, we will ensure every child in the city has a Bold Start to life and the foundations for a Bright Future.
