This directory is being created to help children, young
people and their families, to find local services offering information, advice
and support. Professional workers will
also find the site useful, as details about each local provider, will describe
the eligibility criteria, geographical location and the referral procedure.
The website has derived from the governments Information,
Sharing and Assessment (ISA) Initiative, which forms part of the 'Every Child
Matters: Change for Children' Strategy. This
aims to encourage local providers of children and young people's services, to
share information and work more closely together.
The Directory aims to provide you with up-to-date accurate
information, mainly about statutory, community and voluntary services, where you
will be able to search for a number of topics/issues, relating to your needs.
Even though the directory is web based; you will be able to
download and print information, to create your own personalised
directory. The directory is a new service but will continue to develop in
response to people using it, so tell your friends and colleagues.
