Wakefield District Families Information Service (FIS) provides free, high-quality, up-to-date information to parents, carers and parents-to-be on the full range of information they might need to support them and their children right through to the child’s 20th birthday. This could be information about:-

• childcare or early years services 
• education and family learning 
• health and well-being services 
• social care and family support 
• sports and recreational facilities
• youth services

The FIS website contains useful information about the Service as well as links to local and national sources of information. There are also direct links to Childcare Link where parents can search for childcare across the District, and the web based Families Services Directory (FSD), which brings together in one place up to date information on services to support children, young people, parents, carers, professionals, practitioners and the wider community. The FSD provides information on sports activities, play activities, family support, family learning, volunteering, youth services and more.
