We are a specialist disability city wide service that offers advice, guidance and support to disabled young people, and their parent/carers, who are in transition between Children's services and Adult Social Care. We work with young people with a range of disabilities /complex health needs who are between the ages of 14 to 25 years. Transition workers work closely alongside social workers, education providers, Connexions, health professionals, and a wide range of voluntary and independent sector providers to develop future needs plans. These plans are built around the young person's needs and look at all aspects of their life, care and support needs.
