Adult Locality Services are focused in six areas: Intake and Assessment; Reablement Services; Integrated Discharge Service; Longer Term Care Service Mental Health Services for Older People: and Day Services (Older People and People with a Physical Disability). Learning Disability services are delivered through a joint team with Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board. It provides a specialist, multi-disciplinary service for learning disabled individuals. This includes Assessment and Care Management, an Autism advice service, Adult Placement and Day Opportunities. The Vale of Glamorgan Community Mental Health Teams (CMHTs) are jointly operated by Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (UHB) and the Vale of Glamorgan Council. They offer a specialist, multi-disciplinary service for individuals living with mental ill health. CMHTs form part of an integrated ‘network of care’. The Vale of Glamorgan Substance Misuse Services are delivered in partnership with the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board to provide rehabilitative interventions for people whose substance misuse is affecting their wellbeing or safety.
Children and Young People Services provide help to children and young people who are eligible for care and support. These include children requiring support, who are looked after by the Council, who have left care, who have additional needs and /or disabilities or who need to be safeguarded.
Families Achieving Change Together (FACT) is part of Families First, a Welsh Government funded programme focused on early intervention and prevention. FACT undertake assessments and then work with families and other professionals to identify and coordinate support, enabling families to make positive changes and to improve
The Intake and Family Support Team receive referrals and provide information about services available to support children and their families across all sectors. They undertake assessments and develop care and support plans for those where the threshold for statutory intervention is met. The Child Health and Disability Team work with children and families when the child has a significant learning and/or physical and/ or sensory disability that means they need particular help, care and support and families have to meet additional caring responsibilities. The Care Management Team work with children and families in the longer-term to develop and deliver the plan of care and support to meet the child’s and family’s needs. This includes on-going family support, safeguarding children in need of protection from harm, and the legal planning for looking after those children who can no longer be safely cared for within their birth families. The Fifteen Plus Team receive all looked after children’s cases, with the exception of children with disabilities, when the young person reaches 15 years of age where they are allocated a social worker and young person’s
living settings.

The Placements and Permanency Team works to recruit, assess, train and support local carers to provide foster
placements for children who can no longer be looked after by their own families, either in the short term or longer. The team also assess and support a child’s extended family members to look after him/ her under kinship foster care arrangements,.

We are also responsible for the maintenance of all highway verges, sports fields, play areas and public open spaces. Trees – Virtually all trees under the Council’s ownership are managed by Leisure Services although
