About

Wigan Council awarded a contract to WE ARE WITH YOU for the implementation of the Family Safeguarding Model, a social work practice model aimed at improving outcomes for children and families.

The contract, valued at £272,640, follows a review of social work practices conducted by Wigan Borough Council Children's Social Care and the Wigan Safeguarding Children's Board between 2021 and 2023.

The model involves co-located multi-disciplinary teams, including adult specialist workers, to address parental issues such as domestic abuse, substance misuse, and mental ill-health.

Motivational Interviewing is used to enhance family engagement and support lasting change.

The adult recovery workers, employed by partnership agencies, receive professional supervision and work directly with adults in families through a recorded family programme.
