ve become more confident in using the funding. Early experience of delivering FFCP Wave 1 and Wave 2 areas showed a high degree of openness to innovation and trialling test-and-learn approaches under the FFCP model. The case study areas were found to have established successful co-production mechanisms to involve families and young people in FFCP development. There was also evidence of closer collaboration between delivery organisations under the FFCP model, which led to overall strengthening of multi- agency working. Several examples of multi-agency working were cited, including joint supervision, shared training, collaborative case discussions, co-location of probation within police hubs and other instances of hybrid and virtual multi-agency working. These approaches were seen to enhance information-sharing, reduce duplication, and foster a stronger understanding of families’ and children’s needs and strengths. While data and information sharing between organisations was highlighted as an ongoing issue there 9 were some pockets of emerging evidence of successful data-sharing practices a year into implementation. For example, Education, Health, Police and Social Care teams were all able to view families’ cases on a single portal, allowing access to more relevant information. Several enablers to effective delivery were highlighted including engaged senior leadership, early communication to engage frontline teams, a culture of openness to the test and learn approach, effective IT systems that enabled the new ways of working under the FFCP and co-located teams. The research also identified some challenges faced by delivery teams in their implementation of FFCP. These included data sharing constraints across partner agencies, a lack of training on specific aspects of the F
