Referrals

We welcome enquiries by phone or email before progressing a referral.

Birribi is on the All Wales 4C’s framework – we check this regularly for updates.  We aim to have an initial conversation with a potential placing Authority before submitting an Expression of Interest .

 We do also accept referrals from other parts of the UK.

We will ask for as much supporting information about the young person as possible both covering the care and education and request current and historic reports.

This information helps us to make an informed decision on whether our service is a suitable match.

Our Integrated model of care and education works best if education providers are included as early as possible in the referral process, even when Birribi education is not being requested.

We then follow an agreed process of confirmation, meetings and visits to set up the placement in an agreed and well-planned way.

The Statement of Purpose for each home outlines the provision and how we work with placing Authorities – please take the time to read them and ask any questions.
