No Wrong Door Network Overarching Outcomes • To establish a “Network of Organisations and or Services” which are committed to not sending people away • To facilitate the design of a NO WRONG DOOR network and its interface with other work-streams • To facilitate an “Experts by Experience” process that will set and check the standards of all participating Organisations • To encourage cultural shifts within Organisations

  18. No Wrong Door Network We will achieve this by: • Identify priority needs of the initial user group • Complete a service mapping exercise • Engage with Organisations to establish interest and commitment to participation in potential “pilot” sites • Engage with Experts by Experience to support, influence and monitor the model design (s) • Establish across work –streams interactions • Work with all engaged Organisations to influence change

  19. No Wrong Door Network – Help Needed • Looking for a range of organisations to nominate their interest in being an initial player in the pilot (s) • Your views on what criteria they believe should be established to determine pilot site participation / selection: e.g. Size; Services provided; Geographical delivery; Specialism and Niche; • Also potential organisations to be a critical friend to the work-stream and pilot (s). • What methods would be beneficial and most effect from their opinion in how we as work-streams should communicate with them to: • Will gather information on service mapping; Keep them informed of progress; Opportunity influence and suggest • What are the initial barriers to participation and how may they be overcome?

  23. Signposting Inreach and Outreach – Help Needed • Where are the key transition points for known clients with complex needs? • How/where can we engage with people with complex needs who are disengaged from services? • Where/who would be seen as “trusted points of contact” for people with complex needs?
