Places to go for help outside of school

We can all face problems that seem complicated or intimidating at times and we have therefore put together the following list of external services. We have sourced these for our families who may need support and not know where to start. 

Please also remember that we have a Nearly New Uniform provision in school to support with any uniform needs. Please contact office@hernebayhigh.org for these requests.
