Community and Prevention Services

Jigsaw Support’s community and preventative service play a vital role in improving our communities by providing support to people who are at risk of offending or becoming homeless, who have experienced trauma, substance misuse or mental health issues. Our specialist teams are equipped to help vulnerable people improve their lives whilst also reducing strain on public services.

 
Early Help Oldham
Early Help Oldham is sub-contracted by Positive Steps and delivers community interventions across a spectrum of needs.

The Early Help Offer is an integrated support service, whichhas been developed to help individuals, households and families of any age, to access support for problems - before they reach crisis point.
 
The Prevention Alliance
The Prevention Alliance was commissioned to provide community based support across a variety of ‘low to medium’ support needs.
 
Hospital Discharge Project
Jigsaw Support manages two Hospital Discharge Projects, one which works primarily with homeless people to ensure they have suitable accommodation on discharge and the other is to ensure a smooth transition of care from hospital to home.
