“I enjoyed volunteering because it gave me a true insight into the role I wanted to get into.
We are currently undergoing a transitional period as we prepare for a rebrand. Our Children’s Centres will now be known as Family Hubs, but they will continue to be operated by North Halifax Partnership. You will start to notice some changes and work in progress as we make these developments. We appreciate your understanding during this time and look forward to continuing to support our community through this exciting change!
