If you have initiated or you're closing an Early Help Assessment

Members of the Early Help Team are based within the Cumberland Safeguarding Hub and the Westmorland and Furness Safeguarding Hub and they register all initiated, change of coordinator and closed Early Help Assessments.

Where either of the Safeguarding Hubs have screened a contact and it meets the Early Help threshold, you may be contacted by the Early Help Officer based in that Safeguarding Hub.
