Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps he is taking to roll out open access young futures hubs.

The Government is committed to rolling out a network of Young Futures Hubs which will bring together services to help improve the way young people can access the support they need.

Officials from across a range of departments are already working together, using evidence of what works to start to shape how the hubs will work in practice. As part of this we are engaging with local communities, the police, charities, and other key partners to support the design of the hubs and explore options for their delivery, ensuring we are making use of the vast knowledge and experience that already exists. This includes considerations of the most suitable locations as well as how best to engage with those young people who would benefit most from their support.
