Contact us on 01286 671153. Our friendly team is available to chat and answer any questions you might have about GISDA's services. During the call, we'll work with you to complete an assessment form together. This helps us understand the young person's background, situation, and needs better. All information will be treated confidentially.
Next, the completed form will be submitted through the Single Point of Access (SPOA) system. This central system is used across North Wales to connect people with the right services. The SPOA team will then forward the form to Gwynedd Council for a full assessment.
The young person's situation will then be assessed and the most suitable course of action will be decided. This might involve referring them to GISDA or, in some instances, other support services. If it is determined GISDA is the right fit for the young person in need, we will then be in touch to discuss the next steps and how GISDA can help.
If the young person is eligible to receive support, they will be placed on GISDA's waiting list until they are allocated a key worker. It is difficult to estimate how long someone will be waiting for support. In the meantime, the referrals officer will refer the young person to other related agencies and explore alternative options for support.
