Shropshire Support Service available to Parents/Carers
The Shropshire Family Information Service (FIS) is a free service from Shropshire Council, which your families (and possibly you) may not know about.
The FIS brings together loads of useful, local information for families, to help take the stress out of things like finding:
- Childcare or baby and toddler groups
- Events, clubs, activities and fun things to do in the school holidays, for all ages
- Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)
- Food Shares
- Swimming sessions
- Parenting support for understanding your pregnancy, your child/teen, their sleep, their mental health
- Family finances and the cost of living
- Family support such as relationships, bereavement
- Physical health, emotional wellbeing and mental health support
- Family relationships
Their social media channels bring families news, events and handy information, which links through to our Family Information Directory. The Family Information Directory features local services, groups, events and activities throughout Shropshire. Some of our current popular lists are:
Families are welcome to contact FIS directly, via email shropshirefis@shropshire.gov.uk or our social channels, for help with anything to do with family life.
Families can call the helpline and speak to a trained advisor who can undertake research and pull together tailored information, which can be emailed or posted out to the family.
Email
The FIS has a dedicated email address to send through requests for information and enquiries. This mailbox is monitored throughout the day. The emaiI address is ShropshireFIS@Shropshire.gov.uk
