Setting up services and projects

Our national experience and focus on best practice means that we can critically evaluate and support you with business cases and developing new services for working with vulnerable children and complex individuals and families.

We are able to support you in the setting up and development of new or changed support services across many specialist areas. We have helped ensure services across social care, , housing, health, criminal justice and the voluntary sector deliver quality provision with an underpinning set of principles that include:

• integrated working
• whole family working
• effective communication
• outcomes focused contacts
• evidenced changes for children and families
• supported and supervised staff

Recent examples include setting up Family Hubs, Integrated Front Line Assessment Teams and Early Help Teams. 

We also provide “health checks” on management, systems, procedures, skills, relationships with families and partners, monitoring and evaluation systems and staff development.
