🌟Join us for the launch of GPS🌟
Come along to St Peter’s Pavilion, Hindley, as we introduce GPS—a new service supporting families across the Wigan Borough.
Delivered by Embrace, GPS is a needs-led service, meaning families won't need to have a diagnosis to access support. We will offer practical guidance, useful information, training workshops, support sessions and events and connect families directly with other support on offer in the borough. Families will not need a diagnosis to access the service.
The name GPS stands for "Guided & Personalised Support" and was chosen by young people who felt they wanted something that reflected what the service will do—help families find their way—without using any medical language or diagnostic labels in it's name.
At the launch, you can meet the team, find out how GPS will work and share your ideas.
Your experiences will help us shape a service that works for local families.
