Parents and Carers workshop:
We are pleased to offer a free online webinar on 31st March to help you understand how social media, music, and online content can influence young people’s behaviour, wellbeing, and exposure to risk.
Today’s online world can be overwhelming, and it can be hard to know what young people are seeing, sharing, or being influenced by. This session will provide clear, accessible guidance to help you feel more confident and informed.
The webinar will cover:
• How music, videos and social media content can affect young people’s attitudes and decisions
• How online conflict can spill into real-life issues
• What signs to look out for if a young person may be struggling or at risk
• Practical tips for having supportive conversations at home
• Simple strategies to help young people stay safe online
The session is designed to be supportive and informative, with space for questions and discussion.
We hope you will join us for this important and timely conversation.

SURVEY CLOSES @ 5PM TODAY‼️
✨Best Start In Life: Family Survey
Bristol will have a new Best Start in Life Plan from 1 April 2026. This plan is about making sure every baby, child, and family gets the right support from pregnancy to age five. Family Hubs, midwives, health visitors, speech and language teams, nurseries, schools, libraries and community groups will all work more closely together so families can find information and help more easily.
We want to hear from you so we can shape this plan together. Our early idea for our shared vision is: "Partners taking steps together so families belong and thrive.”
We would love to know what this vision means to you, and what you think should be most important in the plan. Please find the link here: Best Start in Life: Family Survey
This survey should take 2–3 minutes. It would be great if you could respond by 5pm on 17th February!
Please email family.hubs@bristol.gov.uk if you are interested in any future engagement sessions about the Best Start in Life Plan.
