Have you initiated an Early Help Assessment and don’t know how to register it? Are you closing an Early Help Assessment?

Kirsty Fordyce/Steve Kemp are based with the Cumbria Safeguarding Hub and register all initiated and closed Early Help Assessments.

Give Kirsty or Steve a call at the Cumbria Safeguarding Hub on 0333 240 1727 or email your completed registration or closure forms to early.help@cumbria.gov.uk.

Where the Cumbria Safeguarding Hub has screened a contact and it meets the Early Help threshold, you may be contacted by an Early Help Officer from the Hub.
