About us

Northamptonshire Children's Trust was established in November 2020 to deliver Children's Services to the newly established North and West Northants County Councils. The Trust is wholly owned and funded but operationally independent from the Councils; this provides the organisation with unique opportunities to explore new ways of working and to be more agile and adaptable in its approach to service delivery. We are developing a culture that allows the very highest quality of professional practice to flourish and evolve, delivering at the cutting edge of new innovation.

The MASH service brings together professionals from a range of services that have contact with children, young people and families, making the best possible use of their combined knowledge to keep children and young people safe from harm.

The experienced team ensure children get the right service at the right time through an integrated approach from early help and social care MASH. Signs of safety strengths-based approaches, led by decision makers, supports excellent social work practice and is further supported by our Signs of Safety Champions and business support.

We regret that we are not accepting any overseas applications at this time.
