• Sheffield Council’s Preparation for Adulthood Team supports young people with disabilities and their families to prepare for adulthood and move from children’s to adult social care services. Recently, the team has needed to make some improvements and the Council has taken steps to offer a better service.

  Seven new members of social care staff are being recruited to significantly increase the capacity of work the team can complete. These new workers aren’t yet in post, but will be over the next few months.

  You can contact the Preparing for Adulthood Team via the Children with Disabilities Service (tel. 0114 273 5368 / email 0-25duty@sheffield.gov.uk).
