Children's Social care

This section provides information about various health and social care services available to children in Knowsley. From respite care and disabilities to safeguarding children, you will find everything you need in this section.

Mum with kids

If you are thinking about becoming a foster parent, please get in touch with Knowsley's Adoption and Fostering Team.

Children playing

We provide residential care for children to make sure that their needs are met when they cannot live with their own family.

Mother with child

The family support service consists of four family centres providing children and families with help and support to work through difficulties and find solutions.

Children holding hands

Everyone has a responsibility for safeguarding children, not just the ‘professionals’. If you have concerns that a child needs a service, or needs help and support in some way, there are people who can help.
