We are here to support our most vulnerable residents across the South Tees area. Our team of key workers will provide intensive and respectful support for people experiencing multiple disadvantages. We will work with local specialist services to affect and sustain positive changes in their lives, working directly with people to help them understand, and learn how to meet their own needs, build upon their strengths, and reach a point where our assistance is no longer required.

Why should you refer someone to Changing Futures?

·         We do not duplicate or remove the need for services from other organisations, we work with, complement, and enhance other services to ensure the best possible chance of positive outcomes for everyone we engage with

• We help people with multiple disadvantages navigate the complex system of support
• Holistic, person centric support provides better outcomes for the people and any other organisations involved in supporting that person
• We do not signpost; we help arrange and ensure attendance at appointments
• There is no set timescale, the change is owned by the person not the service
• We are not limited to time restricted weekly or monthly appointments
• Trust is established through our actions and the fact that many of our key workers have lived experience
• We co-design a recovery plan with people, we do not ‘do to’ them
• We have time to really listen to and act upon the persons story
• Key workers can help with form filling, benefit applications, debt management, housing support etc
