Or you can contact us by:

  • calling 020 7525 1921 (Mon to Fri, 9am to 5pm)
  • calling 020 7525 5000 (out of hours)

Completing the form

Make sure you give enough detail in your answers so we can build a complete view of the family's current situation.

If not, we'll need to ask you to complete a new form with more information. 

Include:

  • the name, date of birth and address for each child you’re including in the referral
  • the name and contact details for each parent or carer and any other professionals involved
  • information about what support has been offered to the family

We aim to make a decision on referrals within 24 hours once we have all the information we need.
