Building Support for Families: Continuum of Need guidance for all who work with Children and Families in Plymouth
The Plymouth Building Support document is essential guidance for everyone who works with children and their families. It outlines how local practitioners work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of all children across Plymouth. This is intended to help practitioners identify the right help for children and families at the earliest opportunity, from the service or professional who knows them best.
The document has been developed in line with the Families First Partnership Guidance (DfE March 2025) and Working Together 2026. The document has been developed with partner agency professionals, who are committed to strong multi-agency working to ensure we are achieving the best for all children across Plymouth.
Consultation Events
Join colleagues from across Plymouth's Safeguarding Children Partnership to:
- Learn about the new Building Support for Families Continuum of Need Guidance.
- Explore how the framework should be applied in practice.
- Understand what has changed and why.
- Ask questions and share your professional perspective.
- Provide feedback to help shape the final document before implementation.
- Consider how the framework can support stronger multi-agency working and better outcomes for children and families.
We Want Your Feedback
We are keen to hear from practitioners about what works well, any areas requiring further clarification and how the document can best support day to day decision making.
Feedback gathered during the consultation will inform the final version of the guidance before it is formally adopted across Plymouth on November 1st 2026.

As a Partnership we can ensure Plymouth's Building Support for Families: Continuum of Need Guidance provides a clear, consistent and effective framework for supporting children, young people and families to thrive.
