Decision details

Purpose of Report: The report seeks approval to create a SEND Family Hub within one of our existing Family Hubs. We have identified that the Clifton Family Hub presents the greatest opportunity to deliver the SEND hub.

Developing a multi-agency hub of services to support children and young people with additional needs makes strategic and practical sense, primarily due to the benefits of integrated working. By bringing together professionals from education, health, and social care under one roof, the hub puts trust, relationships and seamless support at the heart of how we work together.

The Executive will be asked to: Approve plans to develop a SEND Family Hub within one of our existing Family Hub sites.

Resolved:

                      i.         Approved the creation of a SEND Family Hub within one of the Council’s existing Family Hubs. With the greatest opportunity to deliver the SEND hub at the Clifton Family Hub.

Reason:    To strengthen The Council’s local offer to families in time and ensure a more coordinated response to developing complex need.
