Flying Start will be aimed at expectant parents, new<br />
families with children aged 0-3 years <strong>and</strong> Luton’s school<br />
children who will be the next generation of parents.<br />
Flying Start co-ordinator said: “We want to build on what we already know<br />
works well locally <strong>and</strong> refocus services to concentrate on preventative<br />
initiatives, creating services that provide support before problems arise, so that<br />
we can really make a difference to family’s <strong>and</strong> children’s lives.”<br />
The programme aims to develop an additional workforce including key<br />
workers, local students <strong>and</strong> community volunteers to work alongside families<br />
<strong>and</strong> professionals to promote good parenting <strong>and</strong> to link families to other<br />
services. Local people will also be invited to sit on Flying Start Community<br />
Partnerships therefore having a direct impact on decision making <strong>and</strong> to<br />
influence what services are delivered to support families <strong>and</strong> individuals.<br />
Flying Start is being developed by the Pre-school Learning Alliance, Luton<br />
Borough Council including Public Health, NHS Luton Clinical Commissioning<br />
Group <strong>and</strong> a number of partners including the police, university, London<br />
Luton Airport Limited, <strong>and</strong> voluntary sector organisations.<br />
