Please find attached the Draft Early Support and Intervention Strategy for the Children’s Trust.

The aim of the Strategy is that, where necessary, we will intervene:-

•         ‘Early’ in a child’s life;

•         ‘Early’ in the course of an emerging need or concern;

•         ‘Early’ in the course of a child becoming ‘looked after’,

Evidence shows that if children can safely return to their homes in the first few weeks of becoming ‘looked after’ (formerly, ‘in care’) their life chances and overall outcomes are better than if they become settled in the looked after system.

Drugtrain are an innovative and effective drug and alcohol training organisation. Their training makes a real and positive impact on the lives of people in recovery, their families and communities.

Drugtrain uses creative, engaging and motivating techniques that equip the workforce with recovery and outcome focused interventions and systems.

Across the UK, unions, employers and the third sector are working together on skills to help the unemployed back into work; particularly NEETS and the disadvantaged.

The Government is urging small and medium-sized business / not for profit companies managers to access funding for training through the Leadership and Management Development Grant scheme.

Thousands of SMEs and social enterprises with growth potential are already benefiting from the scheme, which is designed to help stimulate innovation and employment, thereby boosting the economy.

A match funded grant of up to £1,000 can be spent on leadership training and coaching that aids business growth, improving productivity and competitiveness. The programme also includes a free consultation with a business adviser before the training commences, as well as a free follow-up to discuss the impact of the training and any further skills needs.
