Our Approach

This project signposts those in need to services that can offer valuable, free advice. We have increased the number of services available on the website to allow the community to access more services across the city.

In 2013, it was recognised that the centre of Southampton needed a new primary school. New Generations Schools Trust and two local Churches partnered to open a new Free School. Dave supported the application process through recruitment and engagement of local businesses securing the support of a major retailer. The school plans to open in September 2017 welcoming 60 children into two Reception classes. It will be Southampton’s first mainstream Free School.

The BRS work with children & young people with behavioural difficulties, many who are in care and need supervised contact with parents on a regular basis. We helped to identify various spaces across the city for these supervised sessions to help reduce costs and travel for the families.
