Issue details

On the 27th March 2018, cabinet delegated to the director of People, in consultation with the chief finance officer and the relevant portfolio detailed spending decisions for implementation of the Doncaster Place Plan £3m, other integrated function £0.7m and unallocated balance £0.7m.
Complex Lives is one of the areas of opportunity in the Place Plan, established to develop integration of health and social care services. It aims to provide wrap-around support for people who have become locked in a cycle of homelessness, rough sleeping, addiction, offending behaviour, poor physical and mental health – often underpinned by deep trauma.
BCF will support the next phase of the development of the Complex Lives Alliance new delivery model. These seek to establish a number of enhancements and new features which the prototyping and full operation of the model have identified as key requirements to tackle the scale and nature of the challenge. This includes:
- Single Point of Access capacity and preventive work
- Complex Lives Team Senior Case Worker
- Extension of daytime assertive outreach
- Dedicated Drug and Alcohol Support Worker
- Trauma Worker
- Workforce Development Training
- Transport
- Creation of a soft-threshold multi-agency support hub
- Bespoke consolidated support for Vulnerable Women
This investment delivers impact in reducing demand pressures elsewhere in the system
