Community hubs are a placed-based people-focused initiative that respond to the needs of the local community. No two hubs look the same because the approach is very localised. The aim of a community hub is to achieve positive outcomes for children, families, schools and the local community.
The support agency provides a dedicated resource that coordinates and supports the local community hub and facilitates links between the hub and local services. A more detailed description of the roles and responsibilities of the support agency can be downloaded here
