Children's Services Directory

The Directory details services for children, young people and families in East Renfrewshire. The need for a Directory was agreed by all partner Agencies involved in planning Children’s Services, including representatives from health, education, social work, housing, community and leisure, Strathclyde Police, Scottish Reporter’s Administration, careers and the voluntary sector. The Directory is intended to provide a range of information that will be of benefit to individuals who live or work locally.

The Directory  (pdf 79.1kb)is divided into two main sections (click following links to open). Section one (pdf 277kb) provides general information about places to go, including information about whether or not there are eating facilities, wheelchair access etc.  Section two (pdf 359kb) provides information about specific resources, including contact details and details of how to access the service. A list of helplines and useful health website addresses is provided at the back of the Directory.  The Directory (pdf 79.1kb) is updated as required.

Should you wish to add a page to the Directory about a resource please contact on 0141 577 3397

We hope you find the Directory a useful source of information.  Large print copies are also available on request.
