This page is intentionally left blank Agenda Item 6 TRAFFORD COUNCIL Report to: Executive Date: 25th February 2019 Report for: Decision Report of: Executive Member for Children’s Services Report Title Trafford Integrated Youth Offer (TIYO) Proposal Summary The purpose of this report is to detail the final proposal for the Trafford Integrated Youth Offer (TIYO - working title until a name for the new service is agreed). On the 28th November Executive agreed we could consult with staff on the proposed model. Staff consultation took place on the proposed Trafford Integrated Youth Offer (TIYO) for a 30 day period between 28th November 2018 and 17th January 2019. A range of channels were used to conduct the consultation. These ranged from staff briefings and one to one meetings to direct comments made via the official consultation response form. We also consulted with young people. Following the consultation period a number of revisions have been made to the original proposal. The operating model will be an integrated, single service for young people in Trafford. This will use the commissioning principles proposed to Executive in November. Final proposed staffing model will be: - A single service manager for the integrated youth service, - We will retain the five team leader posts. - The YOS case worker post (0.6fte currently vacant) and the YOS Service Manager (fixed term contract) post will be deleted. No redundancies and no budget implications are attached to the revised proposed model. This report describes the detail of those revisions and the recommended final proposal to be approved by the Executive. Page 1 1 Recommendation(s) It is recommended that the Executive: Notes the outcome of the consultation as detailed in the report; Approves the Trafford Integrated Youth Offer proposal as detailed in the report; and. Approves the implementation proposals as detailed in the report to achieve the changes required to create the new staffing and delivery structure of the Integrated Youth Offer (working title TIYO) in Trafford for April 2019.

This will be known as the Trafford Integrated Youth Offer (TIYO) while the proposal is being developed but a new name for the service will be agreed with young people at a later date. 1.3 The Trafford Youth Trust is to be formally wound up and since November 2018 it was agreed that the monies which the Council would have transferred to Trafford Youth Trust (TYT) would instead be held by Trafford Council commissioning so that exisitng contracts would be honoured and managed until the new approach is embedded. 1.4 TIYO will deliver greater choice to our young people, in an integrated and accessible manner. This model combines the offers from the Talkshop, Connnexions and the Youth Offending Service (YOS) and will utilise the resources formerly allocated to the Youth Trust to ensure our offer meets the needs of Trafford’s Young People. 1.5 The new offer recognises that often the issues faced by young people are complex and each issue cannot be resolved in isolation. The offer includes a universal offer: young people will be able to access support, advice and aspects of the offer without demonstrating an assessed need, this will be delivered by the new detached/outreach staff; a targeted early help offer that works with young people with identified vulnerabilities and those at risk of specific disadvantages, including teenage parenthood, criminal activity, low educational attainment, poor emotional health, substance misuse and social exclusion; a specialist offer which will ensure that Trafford Council meets its statutory requirements working with more complex adolescents such as those involved in crime and which will meet the statutory requirement of the Youth Offending Service.
