Help us develop services for children, young people and families
We are exploring creating several Family Hubs across West Northamptonshire. Family Hubs are welcoming spaces where families can easily access support, advice, and guidance all in one place.
We would like your input on how these services should be shaped to best support children, young people, and families. We are also interested in understanding current use of services and for you to share your ideas to make sure the hubs offer the right help in the right places.
For further information and to provide views please visit: Help us develop services for children, young people and families
This activity closes at midnight 6 July 2025.

Feedback on the alternative education provision for West Northamptonshire
We would like to hear from parents and carers to help us develop a new alternative education provision framework.
Alternative education settings are places that support some children and young people in their approach to learning, either instead of or alongside mainstream schools.
The framework will be designed for unregistered alternative education settings in West Northamptonshire.

Draughton Clubroom – New Roof
Draughton Clubroom now has a brand new roof !
Back in January, members of the Draughton Club Room Committee addressed the Council on the investment that is required to repair the roof. It was leaking badly and damaging the inside of the building. £10k was required to fund the repairs and add insulation. The residents of Draughton have been working hard to raise funds for the repairs and after discussion, Councillors agreed to provide up to £7k from reserves to ensure that the repairs can go ahead as quickly as possible. The actual sum provided was £2000 with the remaining funded by an external grant from the Northamptonshire Community Foundation.
