Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (Olivia Bailey)

This Government are opening thousands of Best Start family hubs and network sites in every part of England, building on our proud legacy of Sure Start, providing families with community and connection, and ensuring that every child is supported to get ready for school. The Conservative party eroded support for families; we are bringing it back.
