The EIP Programme Rationale:

1. Financial pressures and MTFP

2. Increasing demand often more complex

3. Continuously improve outcomes for communities

4. Alignment to vision

Scope and Objectives:

• Scope: To continuously improve outcomes for children, adults and communities in Sefton using all available resources, effectively and efficiently

• Objective: Resilient children, adults and communities who can live their lives independently, happily, safely, healthily and who prosper and achieve and whom who are less dependent on service based approaches and complex interventions

Key outcomes:

1. To fully understand the challenges, opportunities and positive qualities of what we do at the moment and agree an improvement programme

2. To develop a new deal with citizens, that puts them at the heart of decision making and finding solutions

3. To shape places and develop multi-agency (integrated) ways of working

4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services

5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial plan for better outcomes for children (MTFP)

Work plan:

1. Agree vision, purpose and scope of programme

2. Gather insight and design a new approach to the way we work (Business case)

3. Develop an implementation plan

What does

the data tell

us about our

current Early

Intervention

and

Prevention

Model

DEMAND

e.g. How many people receive services, where and why? What led them to be in a service? How long do they need it for?

FINANCIAL RESOURCING

e.g. Where do we spend on? What costs the most? What most cost effective?

COMMISSIONING & PROVISION MAPPING

e.g. What are our current strategies? What do we spend our money on? How do we commission – does it work?

OUTCOMES & PERFORMANCE

e.g. What impact on outcomes does our activity have? What do we have to do in statute? What outcomes do we want for the people of Sefton?

VOICE OF CUSTOMERS

e.g. What do CYP&F and communities tell us they want and need? What do they do to help? how do we engage with communities?

WAYS OF WORKING

e.g. What do we mean by EIP? How fit for purpose are our systems and processes, our governance, our relationships and partnerships, our architecture?

BEST PRACTICE

e.g. What do we do well that works? What are other doing? What is most cost effective / outcome effective?

Page 35: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Good practice

• Demand management: stopping people entering the system or reducing the length of time they are in the system);

• Prevention at every level: to build resilience in individuals and prevent needs emerging and taking action to stop them escalating if they do

• Using alternative funding streams: including social impact bonds, crowd funding, non-for profit income generation

• Developing universal plus approaches: extending the role of the universal sector to do more through workforce development and aggregated resources

Good Practice

• Integration: integrated commissioning and integrated delivery to strip out duplication, create improved pathways and streamline processes

• System leadership: adopting a joined up approach across all stakeholders, including public, private, independent sector and the community

• Intelligent commissioning approaches: the application of commissioning approaches, such as data mining, demand forecasting, root cause analysis, service re-engineering and re-design

• Information, Advice and Guidance and online technology: enhancing self-service methods to create independence and make the best use of modern technology

Drivers for Change

Page 56: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Drivers for change

These are the summary statements from the data analysis exercise we undertook. Do you agree these summarise what we said and offer us a firm case for change:

Current Approach: We are reactive and focused on a ‘break-fix’ model

Prevention is not active at all levels in the system

Commissioning and Provision: We don’t always tailor solutions to need

We are structured based on our service offers and work in our domain based areas but children's and adults issues are complex and multifaceted needing a partnership response

Culture and Practice: Referral and Assessment leads to reliance and dependency

We have a traditional culture based on referral, assessment an service intervention

Operating System: Doesn’t identify or systematically address root cause

We aren't yet mature in our analytical abilities to manage demand; we have a degree of system duplication and there are example of process waste;

Drivers for change

These are the summary statements from the data analysis exercise we undertook. Do you agree these summarise what we said and offer us a firm case for change:

Commissioning Activity: Multiple needs met with silo’d commissioning approach

We have potential to develop and mature our commissioning approach

Resources across Sefton: We are not fully exploiting the available resources

We are more expensive than other local authorities; We pay for multiple centres to be run in communities; We have strong ambitions for self-management and self-care but haven't matured the agenda fully

Front Doors: Multiple Front Doors respond differently

We have an opportunity to consolidate our front doors and create a single contact, referral point and triage with partners to streamline the system

Governance Methods, Processes and Systems: Not as effective as they could be and capability is mixed

We want an uncomplicated governance that allows us to agile and flexible yet accountable and we want to train the workforce in new skills for the future

Page 58: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

1. Our current approach is one by which we react to issues once they

have occurred and it is focused on a ‘break-fix’ model rather than a pro-

active, holistic and preventative model

Support is not

consistently keeping

children out of the

system (e.g. 1:4 children get

referred back into the system

within 12 months)

We wait for problems

to happen before we

provide help; we do

not pre-empt problems

and take action to

avoid them

Care Models and Early

Help is an “intervention

– we do it for you”

approach

Page 59: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

2. The services we commission and provide are too generic

and do not match the unique and diverse needs of our

children and adults

Services that

are more

focused on

client need, use

a clear model

and are specific

in what they do

perform better (e.g. YOS, troubled

families)

We retrofit need to services rather than services to need and operate some large

county models that have an offer that is not diversified for local need

The early intervention and community based services we commission are not

aligned to the known root causes of problems

Page 60: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

3. There is a culture of referral and assessment which has

created reliance and dependency

There is no

commissioning that

has been identified

that builds

community capacity

or the universal

capacity

We have professionalised

Early Help and are quick

to make referrals and

undertake or seek

assessments(SEN rate; requests for support, EH

assessment, NFA rates)

Page 61: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

4. We operate a system based on a deficit model and don’t

systematically address root causes and contributing factors

Our systems and

process are not set up

to predict demand,

identify patterns of

root cause or evaluate

what interventions

work, as such we are

at risk of not using

resources effectively

We analyse need and

fill the gaps with

services; there are few

examples of strength

based assessments and

utilisation of assets to

address problems

The root causes

market

The root causes

identified from case

studies and soft

intelligence are not

what we spend our

money on or take

preventative action

around and we do

little to shape the

market

Page 62: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

5. The needs of vulnerable children and adults in the system are multi-

faceted but most commissioning activity is based on single issues

leading to children being in multiple services

• Children and

adults who need

help have

multiple needs

• The root causes

for children are

in the main

family based

issues

• Adults want local

help in one place

• The services we • The services we

commission are

based on meeting

singular need

• We commission

and provide

services for

children or adults

• Children and

adults get passed

round the system

cause they don’t

fit into one

service neatly

Page 63: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

6. We are not able to address the needs of children

and adults on our own but we are not exploiting the

available resource across Sefton

Our commissioning is based on the

procurement of services; we are not exerting

our role of influence across the community,

private and universal sector and nor are we

building community capacity systematically

There are effective results from integrated

commissioning in terms of reducing

duplication, creating efficiencies and

increasing outcome

Multi-agency practices (e.g. YOS, BRFC) are

having more profound impacts on

outcomes than council based services

operating alone

Page 64: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

7. We have multiple front doors and each respond to meeting

need differently

We have 100’s of

front doors and the

rise of academies will

create more; we try

and restrict front

doors rather than

embrace them

The front door

experience is different

depending on the door

you take

A few front doors are responsible

for a massive number of referrals,

others make none

There are multiple

sources and data

bases of IAG

Page 65: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

8. Our governance methods, processes and systems are not

as effective as they could be and capability is mixed

There is duplication and waste in the system

(multiple governance structures, duplicated efforts in performance

reporting and strategy writing, multiple data teams, front line

workers completing lots of paperwork for commissioners)

we have complicated

system maps and system

flows and they are

separate for different

groups

It is unclear

where decisions

are made in some

parts of the

system

(accountability

and

responsibility)

We have changed the

function of our workforce

and not invested in

developing new skills(commissioner and provider)

Page 66: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

• Current Approach: We are reactive and focused on a ‘break-fix’ model– Any future children’s system needs to focus on demand management by taking a proactive approach to Prevention and

Early Help focused on root cause

• Commissioning and Provision: We don’t always tailor solutions to need– Any future children’s system needs to tailor solutions to children’s and families needs and what works for them

• Culture and Practice: Referral and Assessment leads to reliance and dependency– Any future children’s system needs to develop asset based and intelligence led approaches and begin to focus prevention

on root cause

• Operating System: Doesn’t identify or systematically address root cause– Any future children’s system needs to adopt family approaches to meeting children’s outcomes and promote integrated

and multi-agency working to coherently address multifaceted needs

• Commissioning Activity: Multiple needs met with silo’d commissioning approach– Any future children’s system needs to develop asset based and intelligence led approaches and begin to focus prevention

on root cause

• Resources across Staffordshire: We are not fully exploiting the available resources– Any future children’s system needs to fully exploit the available resources to deliver outcomes for children and families

• Front Doors: Multiple Front Doors respond differently– Any future children’s system needs to offer a consistency of customer experience, make sure that every contact made

makes a difference, that IAG is assertive and relevant and that we optimise the use of places people naturally go to for

support

• Governance Methods, Processes and Systems: Not as effective as they could be and

capability is mixed– Any future children’s system needs to develop clearer governance methods, streamlined processes, a focus on outcomes

and develop workforce capability

Summary of Agreed Key Insight Messages

Page 67: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Improving the current system

• Using the data, insight and research we have:

– Developed some core principles we want to see

underpinning any new way of working / operating

model

– Assessed a range of models and looked at what

will work best for us

– Developed Sefton's operating model ands

undertaken low level SWOT analyses on the model

– Developed an OBC

Page 68: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

The Future System

Page 69: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Principles we want in the future model

• Put citizens at the heart of what we do

• Have a clear / common definitions of EIP (upstream, downstream, mid-stream)

• Create a ‘whole system approach’ in which everyone takes action to early warning signs rather than wait for the problem to be referred into a formal system

• Its not US that needs to respond all the time – its everyone’s obligated and liberated to act (every contact counts)

• Lets draw the right people into the system – the right help at the right time in the right way and for the right time

• Timely and planned reassessments for those that need them?

• Reduce the number of assessments (single assessment framework – that also has a community asset based angle not just need)

• One council approach to cases management – think differently

• Make the best use of ALL available resources across all system councils and others

Page 70: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Principles we want in the future model

• Maximise individual and community resilience – create independence at the heart (got trial here – well north / church ward)

• Grow the community ownership in all we do (The answer lies within our communities and how do we give them the permissions to act and do and how do we grow this way of working)

• Instil community, pro-social values

• Do it once – do it together – do it well – hold in together

• We have a singular approach and way of thinking – how do I prevent you coming back again / how do I empower you?

• Unite public economy, social economy and private economy – we all have a role?

• Promote social entrepreneurship and social value

• Think personal plans, personal budget, budget holding lead professionals –person lead care - putting people in control of their lives and finding their own solutions

Page 71: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Principles we want in the future model

• Focus on cause – don’t fit people into services

• Social contract

• Reduce contact points / reduce front doors – still get a response that’s helpful BUT NOT a service

• Multi-purpose / multi-use building / change culture of buildings – multi-service points

• Change the culture of building based services -non-building based delivery (offer to a community – not just services)

• Use our assets differently

Page 72: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

Principles we want in the future model

• Data – Track root cause / back track / take early action based on what causes the demand in the first places (e.g.

what are the core events)

– Intelligent commissioner – we create questions, we decide what to do, we monitor impact

– Take risk to try thinks / Stop things that don’t work / allow some failure

– Predictive data analysis

– Use intuition too

– Analytical skill / tolls / methods (process mapping and reengineering)

• Commission for outcomes not services / create hypothesis and test them

• Commission together again our priorities

• Develop a workforce with the right capability – analytical skills, commissioning skills

• Share success /celebrate success

• Data observatory

• Streamline or develop purposeful boards with clear functions and roles – without creating an industry and top down management

• Have clear accountabilities, assurance and responsibilities – who is doing what – make it clear

• Trust

• Single clear strategy with a suite of purposeful strategies we all own together

Page 73: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

1. Adopt a whole system approach, stop operating in silos - have a clear single strategy

2. We all have a role to play – every contact counts

3. Take a proactive approach to prevention and Early Help

4. Tailor solutions to need

5. Focus on assets not deficits

6. Promote pro-social behaviours an attitudes

7. Think outcomes and offers not services and buildings

8. Create independence and personal resilience – put people in control of their own lives

9. Keep citizens at the heart

10. Be agile, flexible and free from layers of bureaucracy

11. Create big data and intelligence and use it (e.g. Identify root cause and proactively address it where we can)

12. Commission integrated responses not single service based responses

13. Fully exploit the available resources

14. Offer best value in service delivery models (multi-purpose teams, multi-functional buildings)

15. Provide continuity of support and consistency of customer experience

16. Develop the most effective governance methods, processes and systems and develop Workforce capability

17. Be digital by default

In our future system we want to:

that live there

• Strong informal networks in communities which promote personal

and community responsibility and independence with a positive

outlook and can do attitude

What is the Vision? An environment where communities (people, universal services and businesses) around older people, children,

young people and their families are skilled and confident to positively help open another

How will it work?

• Trained community navigators, mentors, ambassadors and champions

• Growth of community interest companies, charities, social enterprises

set up by local people to help and support local people

• Growth of new community funding methods (e.g. crowd funding,

donations)

• Stimulate greater use of community assets (e.g. time-banks and swap

shops where people can exchange skills)

• Universal provisions, the community and local business have the skills to

help families and take a solution focused empowering approach

• Stimulate the growth of charities and voluntary organization based on

what will help the most

• Social impact bonds and payment by results methods

• Schools – resources and how they are used by the wider community

• Corporate responsibility (independently doing)74trust between

organisations

• Great role of digital and assistive technology – self assessment and self-

management (self control at early stage)

Who is it for? All older people, children, young people and families and the

people they interact with in their community

How will we know it is successful?

How is it different?

• Active market shaping – working with universal providers and CVS to

stimulate the right environment

• Empowering responses to peoples problems – educating them to help

themselves and connecting them to the community

• Local businesses, the community and universal services have a more active

role

• New models of delivery and funding

• Asset focused

What will need to change?

• System Culture – pro-active and focused on root cause, using data and evidence base

• Front line culture change - empower people to do it rather than ‘refer’ or do it for people

• Greater work (and more partnerships) with the CVS to stimulate the growth of the sector and

attract new funding

• Closer links between all tiers of services

• Support services in closer proximity to universal services, to up skill and give people confidence (co-

location around school cluster for example), giving a better understanding between the two about

their roles in supporting families and communities

• Online and local methods to help communities connect

• Improved intelligence from the top end of the system (root cause) to market shape in this part of

the system

• Training for the community and investment on community instigators/champions/navigators

What’s our role in this space?

• Little involvement

• Facilitator

• Sign poster

• Enabler

• Very limited supporter

• Commissioning – pump priming

• Intelligence giving

• Push back down - setting a culture

• Market shaping / sufficiency planning

• Setting targets / conditions / expectations for

improvement

• Encourage responsibility to act - capacity builder

of universal

• Mapping – sufficiency of ‘resources’ / social

economy

Skilled & Supportive Communities

Page 81: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

What is the Vision? Developing an environment that enables the community, voluntary, local businesses universal services and statutory

services to work together to jointly find solutions that support older people, children and their families

How will it work?

• Community owning their community and being upskilled to do so

• Statutory services are co-located around universal services

• There are strong local partnerships between community members,

services and local business who work together to develop local

solutions, accessing or developing the community to respond in the

first instance

• Targeted Brief interventions run by the community members and

services together – upskilling the community and universal services

over time

• Greater investment in upskilling the community and CVS

• Local alliances/co-operatives between communities, services and

business who jointly apply for funding and share resources and skills

• Community commissioning funding pooled / local commissioning

• Stimulating growth of social investment

• Skills sharing across services (e.g. peer auditing)

• Increased amount of proactive, targeted interventions in an area

based on local needs (partnership responses)

• Sharing local intelligence

• Co-design and co-working

• Trained community navigators, mentors, ambassadors and

champions

Who is it for?

• Older people in the edge of being vulnerable

• Children and Families who are identified as needing additional help

• Children and Families where issues have occurred

• Children and Families de-escalated from targeted support

• Local communities identified as having multiple risk factors

How will we know it is successful?

How is it different?

• Managing demand down

• Teams working together and with the community

• Partnership and community responses rather than just services responses – joint

ownership of an area

• Proactive, targeted approach based on risk factors

• A move away from referral

• Community commissioning pots with innovative funding solutions

• Locally driven and owned

• Clear performance targets to own jointly – based on outcomes and shared

priorities and targets

• Developing the role of the 3rd sector and other key partners and people in localities

• Effective working practices across the board regarding information sharing

• Behaviour change

What will need to change?

• Building confidence, capability and capacity in the community

• Culture – internally and amongst partners / communities; pro-active and focused on root cause,

using data and evidence base

• Attitudes to risk and attitudes to how support is provided

• KPIs and measures to focus on outcomes for older people / children and families

• Raising awareness of when / how things can go wrong so that appropriate support can be

accessed at the appropriate time

• Infrastructure support to help glue partnerships and maintain and develop localised intelligence

• Joint community and service workforce development

What's our role in this space?

• Join our service offers - Leisure services, environmental

services, aiming high, council tax reduction

• Using universal services differently – being used for

more targeted purposes

• Step-up – step down

• Not just about people services – place shaping

• Educating community to develop their solutions their

problems

• New type of workforce

Community & Services Working Together

Page 82: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

What is the Vision? Developing an environment that identifies and engages promptly with older people, children and family units in need of

support to enable them to regain and maintain an independent life

How will it work?

• Local services work in partnership to create local team, pool resources, funding

and skills

• Resources are allocated to areas based on need

• Multi-agency local support is clustered around local universal services (schools,

early years providers, health centres – so all services can work together more

effectively)

• Resources are available / targeted based on need

• Partnerships receive joint training on brief interventions/ evidenced based

interventions that will make a big difference to the community they work in

• Families are allocated a key worker / lead professional who engages with the

family and other professionals to arrange support

• Local teams take a proactive approach and work with people in the local area

before referrals are made

• There is a clear triage system across the partnership and a help and advice

method

• Targeted brief interventions are offered

• Support is provided to the whole family not just the child, so resilience is

improved and root cause addressed

• Teams are incentivised against performance targets

Who is it for?

• Older people in need of additional help

• Children and Families who are identified as needing additional help

• Children and Families where multiple issues have occurred

• Children and Families de-escalated from statutory services

• Local communities that have long term, ingrained challenges

How will we know it is successful?

How is it different?

• There are local teams which are truly multi-agency and resources across

teams are pooled and shared – single front door to local services

• Workforce development is joined up and relevant to the skills required

for supporting that community

• All partners have a role to play in Early Help – proactive identification of

what is needed

• The threshold for help from a team are ‘higher’

• There is a key worker response

What will need to change?

• Culture - working together to deliver a response and running a key worker approach; working

as a multi-agency team; pro-active and focused on root cause, using data and evidence base

• Developing a working relationship with the community and approaches to grow community

resources first to solve problems

• Targets to increase community capacity and reduce service responses

• Attitudes to risk

• KPIs and measures to focus on outcomes for children and families

• Policy, process and ways of working to enable teams to work together

• Joint team made up of parts: E,g: Children's sol care;

Adults SC; YOT; Regulatory services; Early help services;

Welfare assistance; Substance misuse; DV; Specialist

housing;

• Jointly commissioning

• Step-down into yellow

• Single team / virtual teams

• Joint accountability of delivery of outcomes , control

• Cause (not treatment)

• Percentage of effort is focused on yellow not treatment

• In-reach role

• Targeted in areas of need – neighbourhood based

• Shared culture / Sharing risk

• Co-location

Multi-agency services responses

Page 83: Early Intervention & Prevention - Sefton...4. To take a proactive approach to demand management in children's and adults services 5. To establish a sustainable and efficient financial

What is the Vision? Developing an environment where vulnerable adults, vulnerable families, children and young people are

supported at and for the right time by the right services, in order to return to independent family life as quickly and safely as possible

How will it work?• Short term intervention which is multi-agency approach across

statutory services (Safeguarding, Police, Mental Health, SEND,

Youth Offending)

• Co-located statutory response hubs across agencies

• Intensive prevention approaches (proactive approaches to

identifying most vulnerable and taking action before they

come into the system)

• Rehabilitation approaches and active step-down working with

multi-agency teams

• Personalised / Managed budgets (by service users)

• Local commission /spot purchasing relevant to families need

• Enhanced regional approaches

• Active family and community approaches to build resilience of

the most vulnerable

• Commissioning is integrated and commissioners work to

design and commission integrated service responses

• Locality delivery in areas of greatest demand

• Families will know how and when interventions will cease

• Addresses root cause to prevent re-referral

• Shares intelligence to inform root cause and Early Intervention

Indicators for learning up stream

Who is it for? Covers older people, children, young people and families in the

statutory parts of the social care (Children in Need – S17 Children

Act definition; LAC; safeguarding; adoption), mental health, SEND

(a proportion of) and YOS systems and partners statutory

responses for vulnerable people (e.g. Police, Housing, DWP)

How will we know it is successful?

How is it different?

• Integrated commissioning and delivery across all key partners

• Family and community focus

• Multi-agency co-located teams across statutory services

• Proactive prevention and rehabilitation

• Funding and payment methods

• Demand led

What will need to change?

• Culture – working together; pro-active and focused on root cause, using data and

evidence base; locality working

• Power and control of individual agencies

• Attitudes to risk internally and across partners

• Proactive funding teams

• Skills and capabilities – to work in new ways across family and community

• System and process

What's our role in this space

• Deliver our statutory duties alongside

partners, in the most effective and

efficient ways possible that make sense

What’s different

• Change of balance from service provision model to community based model

• Focus on assets rather than deficits

• Whole system re-wiring – glue the parts of the system together

• Multi-agency and partnership at all parts (social, public an private economies together not just public sector)

• More flood gates to stop escalation of problems

• Prevention at every level – upstream, down stream, mid stream

• More intelligent system – uses resources wisely, predicts, forecasts and plans, deploys resources based on evidence

• Managed response to de-escalation – effectively supporting people out of services but keeping them supported in their community through a new way of working

• A clear role for the community and a agreed role for the council

1. For communities, adults, children and families it means:

• We will be able to provide more personalised care for adults,

children and families, so that they can choose what is best for

them

• We will start a cultural shift to move from a dependency culture

to independent citizens

• Individuals and communities can be involved in creative and

local solutions that work for them

• We will be working with local people to give them greater

involvement and responsibility over the way that their money is

spent

prevent duplication of services

• Resources can be spent more effectively

• By integrating we will establish common cultures, joint

assessments and clearer care pathways

making

• A greater diversity of provision that will help to stimulate growth

of the third sector and local business
