Hi, I am Daniel Reeve, Team Manager for the West & Breckland Support for Success Team. We have been a ‘live’ service since April 2021 and have established great working relationships with Team Managers in the West & Breckland patch, as well as Foster Carers, Supervising Social Workers and professionals from a wide range of disciplines.

The Support for Success Team develops and provides bespoke packages of support to young people, families and professional ‘teams around the child’ to help the thinking to identify needs, those presented and the underlying causes, so that thinking and planning leads to agreed intervention plans to help the stability, emotional wellbeing and mental health and reunification plans for the young person. We work with young people who are looked after or becoming looked after in the In Care and Life Beyond Care teams and CWD and FAST.

You will attend group supervisions to help with the thinking about all the young people in group supervision sessions and help to develop ideas for where the unmet needs could be met with support. The Clinician role is key to help identify where greater discussion and thinking would help the network to provide greater support to the young person, facilitating a consultation with key people to explore needs.

As a Clinician, you will undertake some direct intervention work for about 10% of your hours, you will provide clinical supervision to Practitioners in the teams and help the team to think and reflect, generating ideas about possible interventions or support when young people are discussed within the team. You will have Clinical Supervision from a Clinical Psychologist and case management and support from your Team Manager.

This is a very supportive team, full of passionate people, keen to be helpful to one another and support learning, thinking and development of the skills across the team and the patch.
