Which Referral Do You Need?

INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT

Individual Support Referral

Use this route when one young person needs support that is not part of an already agreed school programme.

The guided form will take you through the young person’s details, support needs and relevant information we need to review the referral.

SCHOOL PROJECTS & PROGRAMMES

How School Programme Referrals Work

For most school projects and programmes, UTurn will agree the delivery with the school first. The school then selects the young people it wishes to refer.

The school remains our main contact and is responsible for obtaining the appropriate parent/carer permissions and providing the information needed for each young person to take part safely.

No separate full registration is normally needed: young people attending only an agreed school mentoring programme are covered by the school referral information unless UTurn asks for anything further. A full registration will be needed if they also join UTurn clubs, Holiday Club, trips or other activities outside the agreed programme.

BEFORE YOU REFER

A Few Things to Know

Permissions

The referring school or organisation should have the appropriate permissions in place before submitting a referral.

Relevant Information

Please include information that may affect how we support the young person safely, including relevant medical, additional-needs or safeguarding information.

Referral Review

Submitting a referral does not automatically confirm a place or service. The UTurn team will review the information provided.

NEED HELP?

Need Help With a Referral?

If you are unsure which referral route to use or would like to discuss a referral before submitting it, contact the UTurn team.

UTurn is not an emergency service. If a young person is in immediate danger, call 999.
