The four Children in Need teams work throughout the borough. They work with children and families who have been assessed by the Access and Assessment Team |as being in need.
The teams work together on a medium to long term basis with families:
-
to support family life;
-
to reduce social exclusion;
-
to reduce anti-social behaviour amongst children;
-
to give every child the opportunity of a happy, healthy and successful life.
The teams carry out intensive work arranged through care plans to support and promote the welfare of children and young people.
