The Whole Family Wellbeing Programme sits within the structure of the Integrated Children’s Service Planning Board and ultimately to the HCPP Board. Lead by a Programme Manager and six Locality Co-ordinators, implementation of the programme aims to provide holistic whole family support, readily available across Highland to families that need it. With the National Principles of Holistic Whole Family Support (‘the National Principles’) embedded into the planning, commissioning and delivery of services provided to support children and families. These principles are integrated into the Children’s Services Plans (2023 -2026). The principles will be used to deliver high quality, preventive, holistic whole family support through their services for children and families.
