We're updating our Records
At Sure Start Whitley we try to keep our information up to date and our Family Development Worker team try to be aware of changes.
In order to keep our records up to date and relevant we may occasionally call people to check that we still have current information. If you receive a call and are in any way unsure of the person you are talking to please call us back on the main Sure Start number 0118 9375 777 so you know that the information is going into the correct hands.
Many Sure Start families using our facilities have given us permission to keep information on them which we use purely to help us to deliver the services that people need. This information is never shared with third parties.
Please also feel free to call us at any time to let us know if information has changed, for example if you have changed address or telephone number, email addresses or want to add new family members, so that we can keep our records up to date and try to offer services that suit you and your family. |
