When the current contract ends at the beginning of April, Herefordshire Council would like to deliver the Children’s Centre service instead of HOPE. This is a link to the council’s proposal

What is the current Children’s Centre service in Bromyard?
HOPE have always delivered this for nearly 20 years. The service is about helping families with children 0-5. This includes the groups we run, the family event days, the café activities, the advice and guidance you get and many other things that HOPE offers.
You might have used us in the past or are using us now. Either way, it is really important that a locally provided service can continue, especially when the pandemic means getting help is really difficult.
Bromyard’s rural location means it is not always easy to access services. As a local provider we think we know what people need and can respond quickly when help is needed. We know the local community and think we are in a good position to know Bromyard pretty well. This means that the future of Hope will be affected if the services are moved.
You can send us a comment, messenger us or mail us and we will collect all the comments and give them to the council. It is really important to say what you think about local services if you want to protect them. You can mail us heidi.mulholland@hopefamilycentre.org and this is our Facebook account @HOPECentreBromyard.
If you prefer to comment directly to the council on the proposed changes, you can write to Amanda Price, Amanda.Price@herefordshire.gov.uk or Richard Watson, Richard.watson@herefordshire.gov.uk
