Decision details

That the Local Committee [Epsom & Ewell] agreed:

(i)    To support the latest early help developments in Elmbridge, including proposed early help priorities for re-commissioning and the location of Local Family Partnerships;

(ii)   That Cllrs Mrs Jan Mason, Neil Dallen and Lucie Dallen be appointed to sit on the Epsom & Ewell Early Help Advisory Board, to provide member input into local discussions and a link back to the committee for the remainder of 2017/18 and 2018/19.

Reasons: We want Local Members to be informed about the proposals that we have been developing in partnership for the early help system in Surrey. We believe these proposals will help us realise better outcomes for children and young people within the early help resources we have available. We also know however that early help is most effective when it is planned and delivered locally, so we are seeking the advice of the Local Committee to inform our identified local priorities.
