0-19 Integrated Service

Torbay Council has reviewed how some of our services for children, young people & families are delivered. We

want to help build the capability and capacity of children, young people, parents and the community to support

themselves and others.

For outcomes to change and improve a transformational way of working needs to be implemented. Current

services for the 0 to 19 population are delivered as separate services causing duplication, missed opportunities,

unnecessary and confusion in the population on where to go to for children's early years support. To achieve

2 / 4

improved outcomes the culture of commissioning and service delivery needs to radically shift to one of

integrated outcomes focused delivery and this contract indicates a start of that journey. We want a future system

that is based on the strengths within individuals, families and communities and works to build upon these rather

than focussing solely on deficits.
