Company Description

Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose.

We call these our '3Ps'.

We achieve this in two ways. First, we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services.

Secondly, we use our knowledge to change 'the system', to fix the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help.

With the heart of a charity and the mindset of a business, we are uniquely placed to deliver on this challenging agenda.

Young People and Families

Our Young People and Families hub works with those in trouble, providing early intervention, targeted, and specialist support services to those in crisis, leaving care, missing from home, or with substance misuse or mental health problems.

Services support people no matter what their situation - and have demonstrated a high success rate.

Undertaking assessments, and informing risk management plans, in liaison with the designated lead professionals and other relevant partners/agencies holding a caseload of up to 10 young people at any one time, agreeing a care plan with young people, and reviewing this at regular intervals.
Developing and sustaining productive working relationships with referring agencies, police, our partners at Surrey Risk Management Meetings (RMM's), and other relevant agencies such as Surrey County Council Children's Services, to facilitate support in association with the local CE protocol where CCE is identified.
Recording all interventions, contacts, outcomes, and multiagency correspondence, in accordance with the service specification Management Information Systems.
Completing all required monitoring information by set timescales, to assist the production of feedback reports to funders and stakeholders.
Completing Outcome Stars, to track and monitor progress against outcome targets and KPI's, identifying individual needs and measuring distance travelled.
