What we do
Greater Manchester Core Key Working Service provides a designated keyworker for children and young people 0-25 years with a Learning Disability and/or Autism who are at risk of admission to a mental health ward or a 52-week residential school. This is for children and young people who are on the Dynamic Support Register and who are at red, amber or blue.
The service also provides a preventative offer, known as Positive Pathways,providing a designated keyworker for children and young people aged between 10 - 18 years, who have escalating needs and without support will likely require addition to the Dynamic Support Register and require longer term support. Support is up to 12 weeks. Children and young people will have a diagnosis of a Learning Disability and/or Autism or a suitably qualified clinician can state if assessed then a diagnosis would be highly likely.
