Around 100 additional people have indirectly received support - often family or cares of those referred benefit from the intervention, such as onward referrals to Team Around the Family (TAF).

INTERVENTION EXAMPLE Circumstances: A school referred 2 brothers, 7 and 10 years old, to the INTACT EIP Team. Mum has 6 children and was struggling to cope with their behaviour. Risk factors identified: Bereavement and drug use in the family, parental separation, diagnosis of ADHD and ODD, displaying signs of violence. Action taken: 1. Both boys attended the INTACT Project Safe group intervention. i. During the group sessions it became clear that there were wider concerns in the home environment and their violent behaviour was causing tension in the community. 2. Following the conclusion of the group sessions, Paul visited the family and spoke about a referral to Team Around the Family (TAF). Mum consented to having a referral to the service and Paul helped her complete the form. 3. Signposting to local football clubs was undertaken for the boys. 4. Due to violent behaviour in the street, a joint event with the housing provider ATEB was arranged and parents had a chance to put forward their concerns regarding safety and the lack of provisions for children and young people which could serve as diversionary activities. i. As a result, ATEB are seeking funding for a new MUGA (multi use games area) for the local children and young people to use. Outcome: The behaviour of the boys has improved at school as a result of the intervention, one of the boys is also now attending football club regularly and took part in the CLIW boxing intervention. Mum feels that she has received quality support from TAF and continues to have their support.
INTERVENTION EXAMPLE Circumstances: Mother of a 13-year-old male attended a police station and stated she was scared of the violent behaviour her sone was exhibiting. Risk factors identified: Social isolation, living in derivation, parental separation. Action taken: I visited David and his mother Georgia at home. I talked with Georgia, who said that she believes that David has a game addiction and stays up until 3am most days. We talked about confiscating devices, but Georgia said that she has done this before and David has become violent, threatening and has broken things. we then talked about limiting device time and finding other things that David likes to do. Georgia said that David enjoys swimming but they don't go because of the cost. I advised Georgia to visit the GP to discuss David s mental health and her concerns around his gaming addiction. I went away and found subsidised swimming classes and free swim sessions at the leisure centre and printed out the timetable. I visited Georgia and David again and showed them the swimming timetable. I has also printed out a weekly planner and we worked through it together talking about appropriate times to get up in the morning and appropriate bed times. Georgia signed David up for three swimming classes a week and that two hours of gaming a day was sufficient in the week planner. Outcome: I visited David and Georgia again. David is now having support from an Early Help worker and is attending swimming two or three times a week. He has reduced his time gaming and his behaviour has changed for the better, with far less violent outburst. Georgia has taken him to the GP and they are now waiting for an assessment for support around his gaming addiction.
INTERVENTION EXAMPLE Circumstances: Sam was having issues with online abuse from another child, who was sending her videos and messages to kill herself because nobody likes you this came to police attention via the school. Risk factors identified: Parental separation, inappropriate online behaviour, family history of mental health, living in deprivation. Action taken: Sam attended the Project Safe group intervention and built a good relationship with Rachel. It became apparent that there were other underlying concerns that had not been explored. Over the course of the intervention, Same made a number of disclosures about self harm, her sexuality and that she is violent towards some other children at school. Since Sam attended the group session, Rachel has undertaken one to one work with both Sam and her mother, supporting them to find the right help at the right time; including arranging interim counselling form a third sector organisation whilst Sam waits to access support from CAMHS. Rachel has also mapped out a number of sports clubs that are of interest to Sam. Rachel has provided Sam s mother with advice and useful resources to help educate Sam about online safety and her sexuality, as well as finding a local support group. A referral has also been made to TAF. Outcome: Sam has received some counselling and her behaviour has started to change for the better, Rachel continues to support Sam and her mother with occasional visits and continued signposting to local services as their circumstances are chaotic and change from day to day.
