Right Help, Right Time
Delivering effective support for children and
families in Cheshire East
Multi-Agency Threshold of Need Guidance
All Hallows work closely with Cheshire East Family Hub and Social workers. We work with families and young people, to offer extra and targeted help assessment. This allows us to support you in getting effective and early intervention bringing other professionals around the table with a plan of support. Early help assessments are voluntary. This means that parents carers or young people do not have to agree to have an assessment. But remember, early help aims to support families and young people and to prevent problems from getting worse. So, early help services may prevent the child and family’s needs from escalating.
Multi-Agency Threshold of Need Guidance
The guidance provides a framework for professionals who are working with children, young people, and families and aims to help identify circumstances when children may need additional support to achieve their potential. The stepped approach provides information on the levels of children’s needs. There are four different levels of need from universal services, which are available to all children and include education and health; extra and targeted help for those children who need additional support to reach their potential; and statutory and specialist help where the issues are more complex.
When families need some extra help and support to keep their children safe and well. Support includes assessing what families need and creating and implementing a plan of support.
