Children & Family Centres

Our Children & Family Services incorporate the work of our three Children & Family Centres, Kennedy Leigh in Hendon, Leonard Sainer in Redbridge and Somers in Hackney. Each centre runs specialist support groups for children and families, supported by teams of professional social workers.


Social Work

Norwood social workers work directly with children, troubled adolescents and parents at our Children & Family Centres. They also provide specific support for adults with learning disabilities and their families. This can range from helping adults move into independent living to support with personal relationships.

Unity – recreation services

Unity is the name given to our recreational services for children with learning disabilities offered at all our Children & Family Centres. Unity’s many services are available to 5 to 18 year olds and their siblings.
