The search box at the top right of each web page is a basic search covering most parts of the website.
Clicking the magnifying glass button next to the search takes you to the search results page with a larger search box and options to help narrow your search.
Search tips
If you are not finding the information you need:
- Try using another word or phrase for what you are looking for.
- If you are getting too many results, try using a more specific search term - for example, 'parent training' instead of just 'training'.
- You can search just part of the site by using the 'refine your search' links on the right of the results.
- We provide some extra ways to search for some specific information - see the list below.
- It might be a service that we don't provide - some services are provided by your district or borough council.
- Still no luck? Read the following suggestions on this page and if they don't help, please see our quick links guide or If all else fails.
