‘Let’s Work Together’ is a multi-agency initiative which ensures that people receive the support they need to live healthy, safe and independent lives.

It provides those people who visit individuals and families in their homes, with the tools training and skills to be the ‘eyes and ears’ for partner organisations, identifying risks and signposting or referring to services.

As a home visitor, Let’s Work Together will provide the skills needed to spot risks in clients’ homes, as well as offering the confidence and know-how to make referrals.

It will also provide details in relation to how the referral system works so home visitors can be confident that referrals made will be dealt with by an appropriate professional.

As a service manager, Let’s Work Together will help to ensure all staff gets the training they need to spot risks in their clients’ homes, and have the skills and confidence to make a referral.

Never miss a chance to make a difference…
