4Children is now the lead provider for Short Breaks Clubs and Activities for children and young people who have a disability in Essex.

Early Learning and Community Childcare Hubs brings together high quality day care providers and childminders to develop a financially sustainable model for a more flexible and responsive childcare offer. The project is setting up six ‘start-up hubs’ and is working with three other support hubs to produce learning and evidence for setting up this flexible childcare offer.

4Children’s ‘Reach Out’ project is helping children's centres improve the impact of their work with targeted, disadvantaged and vulnerable families. An outcomes framework is being developed with the early years sector and inspired by 4Children's partnership work with Professor Marmot at UCL to develop An Equal Start - improving outcomes in children's centres.

The RAF Benevolent Fund has commissioned national charity 4Children to deliver trained Airplay youth workers on RAF stations, working in partnership with RAF Community Development staff to provide a programme of safe and stimulating activities for young people on stations.

A new DfE funded programme to help to improve the business skills of early years and childcare providers, this project will bring together good practice resources and information on business management in an online hub as well as offer a series of free training events and seminars.

This programme aims to work with the voluntary and community sector to help increase their management of children centres or delivery of children centre services in several pilot areas throughout England.
