About

Sandwell Family Life is a directory of local activities and services for children, young people and families in Sandwell. It provides information on a wide range of support that aims to make life better for young people and their parents and carers – whether that’s making friends and having fun, getting involved in sporting or leisure activities, learning new skills, or getting advice or help with some of the more challenging things in life.

All the services listed on this website are ‘universal’ in that they are open to members of the public living in Sandwell. Organisations list information about what activities they offer and who they expect to benefit most. Some activities do make a charge to help towards their costs, but all organisations listed on this website are not-for-profit and the information listing will show whether there is a charge or not.

This website is run by SCVO, a local registered charity (no. 1071514, www.scvo.info) on behalf of the Sandwell Early Help Partnership. This Partnership brings together schools, voluntary agencies, community organisations, faith groups, Sandwell Council, health providers, police and fire services and others, to work more closely supporting children and families in Sandwell.

The Partnership believes that all children and young people growing up in Sandwell deserve the best possible start in life and should have access to a wide range of opportunities to grow and develop into healthy, happy individuals and active citizens within our community.

Sandwell Family Life portal relies on activity providers to keep the information they list on the website clear, accurate and up to date. If you notice any information which is incorrect or out of date please use the button shown on that activity page to send us a message so that we can improve the information.
