Bexley Council is reviewing the Best Start Family Hubs programme, which includes the established Erith hub, following the recent expansion.

The Best Start Family Hubs programme, which includes the Erith hub, was comprehensively reviewed by Bexley Council's Children's Services and Education Overview and Scrutiny Committee in October 2026. This review follows the expansion of the programme with a new Best Start Family Hub Thamesmead, which opened in September 2026, complementing the existing Erith centre.

The Best Start Family Hub (BSFH) Erith is an established family hub in Erith, offering a wide range of support services for families. The expansion of the programme aims to provide more accessible community-based support and integrate services more closely with health provisions across the borough.
