Salisbury Portage Service

July 2017 - Update to Portage Services in Wiltshire
Wiltshire Portage will be taking over the Portage service for children and families in the Salisbury and surrounding area from Virgin Care on 1st July 2017.
Wiltshire Portage currently has Home Visitors covering the rest of Wiltshire excluding Swindon.
Wiltshire Portage has already begun the process of recruiting new Home Visitors for the South Wiltshire area, and as soon as they have completed their training, Wiltshire Portage is confident they will be able to resume a full Portage Service across the county. In the meantime, Wiltshire Portage will be keeping in touch with families known to the service to discuss how they can help during this transition period, and will be keeping these families notified of the timescale for the new service.
Wiltshire Portage wishes to offer the assurance that the team of experienced Home Visitors will work alongside new members of staff to ensure that an excellent Portage service is delivered to the south Wiltshire area.
Wiltshire Portage is working very hard to get the new service up and running as quickly as possible; any parent carer or family member with urgent queries or who requires help, should contact the Portage Service Manager: Kim Hannay-Young on 07780 653888 or email managerwiltshireportage@gmail.com

Finally, Wiltshire Portage would welcome any parents or interested people who would like to become involved. There are opportunities to join the Management Committee, and they would be delighted to hear from anyone who would like to get involved in fundraising events.
