Brokerage service

Lancashire's Family Information Service (FIS) offers a Brokerage Service designed to help parents and carers find suitable childcare.

The service is primarily aimed at:

• Lone parents/carers who are starting or returning to work or training.
• Parents/carers who have children with special educational or additional needs.
• Parents/carers who cannot find childcare locally that meets their family's needs.
• New parents/carers moving into the county that are not familiar with the area.

The service can be accessed by calling 0300 123 6712 or by emailing FIS@lancashire.gov.uk

Parents and carers can also search for childcare via our childcare search.
