Theory of Change

We operate a Theory of Change and strengths-based approach, enabling positive identity formation and supporting individuals to view themselves through the lens of their potential and ambitions rather than negative past experiences and stigma.

Our Theory of Change is more than a delivery model. It cuts across everything we do.

We take an evidence-based approach to support delivery. We subscribe to the guiding principles of the Recovery Model, Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE), Trauma-Informed (TI) approaches, and the 5 Ways to Wellbeing as our framework for delivering care and support. Our bespoke Theory of Change has been developed with residents and participants as experts; this and the approaches above have been embedded across organisational training, policy, practice and processes.

We support people to achieve their recovery with person-centred service models that are asset-based, recovery-focused, and build resilience, setting SMART goals together, and closely monitoring and celebrating progress. We record and monitor progress towards expressed goals using In-Form or Commissioner’s preferred Client Management System for user documentation, plans and performance monitoring.
