Families can now access a range of support services under one roof as two new family hubs open their doors.
In Spences Lane, Lewes and Meridian Way, Peacehaven, the sites are the final two of 11 family hubs that East Sussex County Council has opened this year.
Visitors to the two hubs can get support and advice from midwives, health visitors, early communications support workers, early years practitioners and more.

Activity sessions will give children, parents and carers the chance to socialise and support their children’s needs and development.
Councillor Bob Bowdler, East Sussex County Council’s lead member for children and families, said: “I’m delighted that all 11 of our new family hubs are now open, offering a one-stop shop for families and making it even easier to access the support they need.
“The hubs, which are already proving popular, offer a wealth of advice and information on a wide range of issues including parenting, mental health and housing. The hubs will also offer antenatal and postnatal education courses and perinatal mental health support.”
