Sure Start - Horizon (Carrickfergus/Larne)

SureStart is a government funded initiative specifically for families with children under four years.

That means the government gives us the money and the services are completely free for families living in Sunnylands, Northlands, Clipperstown, Lovelane and Killycrot wards of Carrickfergus.

We also deliver services in Larne wards; Antiville, Ballycraigy, Ballylornan and Larne town

The overall aim of Surestart is “to improve the wellbeing and life opportunities of young children under 4, through better health, early learning and play opportunities” so that “children can flourish when they enter school”.
