The service aims to ensure children, young people and their families:
- have their voice heard
- access the right support at the right time

A Keyworker will work alongside children/young people and their families to identify personal goals and put in place their own unique action plan. They will help breakdown any barriers and will support children and young people to achieve their goals.
