The area spans the varied communities of inner and outer London and surrounding geographical areas of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Surrey and Kent. Within these areas, are pockets of great affluence as well as much deprivation. The population is diverse with over 100 first languages spoken within the communities we serve.

There will be circa 30-40 patients subject to multi-professional/agency working under the auspices of the Care Programme Approach (incorporating Section 117 Aftercare) at any one time, though all young people will need multiagency working.
