Update 4 November:
We presented a report on the Family Services Review to Newcastle City Council’s Cabinet on 22 October 2014. At that meeting, we recommended the implementation of a post-consultation model for the “Wellbeing Care and Learning Early Help and Supporting Families Offer”, based on feedback received during the recent consultation process.
Cabinet accepted the recommendation and we are now in the position to start the next phase of the process.
We are holding feedback sessions in November which will:
- provide feedback on how the consultation process informed the post-consultation model that was approved by Cabinet
- provide an overview of the Post Consultation Model
- set out the timeline for the next stage of the consultation process
We are using the same booking system as we did for the locality consultation events in September.
