Service Mapping in Southend
Public system reform | Data analytics and visualisation
Southend A Better Start and Public Health at Southend Borough Council
We are working with Southend A Better Start and Public Health at Southend Borough Council to map the services currently available to families with children from conception to age 19. This is to understand the current service landscape in Southend and aid future system reform.
The need
Before considering system reform, leaders need a clear map of the system to fully understand services available to 0-19-year olds and the typical pathways available to them. We cannot know where the system is working well, or where it requires bolstering, without this understanding. This is where Southend currently find themselves – needing to know what their current configuration of services are providing and where there may be gaps in provision.
Our response
We are creating an interactive map of services, covering a range of factors from who the service is targeted at to what kind of child or family outcomes they deal with. Once complete the interactive map will be available to all partners and stakeholders to increase the shared understanding of services in Southend and where pathways can be strengthened.
This work has been commissioned jointly by Southend A Better Start and Public Health at Southend Borough Council.
