The Social Services and Wellbeing (Wales) Act 2014 places a duty on Local Authorities to provide a preventative approach to the delivery of wellbeing to its citizens.

The team works proactively and intensively with families to manage risk and respond calmly to crises through innovative ways, provide practical support and therapeutic skills, strengthen resilience and parenting capacity, and reduce risk within families to bring about improved outcomes for children and young people.
