HoardingUK National Hoarding Conference-2024: What IS working?

Description

HoardingUK has led the way on delivering person-centred, time managed, cost-effect therapeutic and practical support programmes for over sixteen years.

We are hosting a interactive day with a panel including professionals from our multidisciplinary initiative in Gloucestershire.  

In April, after a years' work, Gloucestershire County Council, Fire Service and HoardingUK launched six Gloucestershire support groups (Alphabetically: Cirencester, Cheltenham, Forest of Dean, Gloucester, Stroud and Tewskbury).  Alongside this, Environmental Health and Housing funded direct support for participant.

Representative teams who have formed the core group within the pilot include Enablement Team, Environmental Health, Fire Service, Guinness Housing and Happy Homes will be sitting on the panel.

For the last year, HoardingUK has worked to train the Enablement Team to deliver the support groups ensuring that they will be sustainable.  The Fire Brigade is partnering to fund the groups.  

Alongside this Environmental Health has funded practical support which has been integrated with psychological support funded by Guinness.  

The team is coming together to talk about the challenges and successes resulted from this multi-disciplinary coordinated programme.
