Current status: Initiated by the Scottish Government. Answered by Natalie Don-Innes on 5 February 2025
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the investment approach published on 19 September 2024, when it will increase Whole Family Wellbeing Funding to children's services planning partnerships for transforming holistic family support.
The Scottish Government is committed to transforming holistic family support in local communities through the Whole Family Wellbeing Funding. That is why we have agreed with COSLA that the funding for Children's Services Planning Partnerships, who are driving the transformational change at a local level, will increase from £32 million to £38.1 million in 2025-26 and in 2026-27.
