Edge of Care– Route 29 Carer Salford is a thriving cultural, economic and residential location, well known as a channel for academic and business talent. Children get a great start at a wide range of schools, further education colleges and the award-winning University of Salford. The waterfront development at MediaCity UK makes Salford a major centre of UK media production. We want children growing up in Salford to see and say that their city, community, and services are great and this has been recognised in our most recent Ofsted report which rates our continued overall services as ‘good’. This means that ‘children have continued to receive focused, timely and proportionate support in response to their needs and level of risk. Multi-agency arrangements for children are effective and these lead to a good range of interventions that keep children safe’ (Ofsted 2018) Route 29 is inspired by the 'No Wrong Door' approach which is an exciting way of working collaboratively to meet the needs of our most vulnerable children and families in Salford. Route 29 will focus on providing a robust and asset based intervention to young people aged 8 -18 years who are on the edge of care, in care or at risk of placement instability. We believe that Route 29 will embrace a closer working relationship with adolescents – a ‘working with’ rather than a ‘doing to’ approach. We want to be seen as a listening organisation and one where young people do not need to repeat their story to each professional, no matter which agency is involved. Our service includes a 28 day residential home that supports young people at times of crisis. Our hub which will provide residential and outreach support will have a dedicated team which includes: • Two Deputy Managers, • Key workers who support young people and their families within the hub and by outreach work in the community, • Portfolio Leads (keyworkers with additional levels of responsibility), • Senior CAMHS Practitioner, • Speech and Language therapist, • Educational Psychologist, • Police Officer, • Two Specialist Nurses This is an exciting time to join Route 29 as the service continues to grow and develop to support more young people across the borough.
