Cheshire East Early Help Framework

The Early Help Framework will be used for the commissioning of early help services for adults and children, and has been developed in conjunction with Eastern Cheshire and South Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Groups. The objective of the framework is to facilitate a significant and tangible impact on the lives of children, young people and adults whilst also aiming to prevent or delay demand for adult social care, children's services, and health services, as well as reducing escalation to more intensive and specialist support.
