Review of Barnahus Model for Young People who have Experienced Child Sexual Abuse: Discussion

Ms Helen Shortt:

We have not yet completed discussions with CHI, although those six posts have been identified. They are primarily to continue to support the evolution of the service in the south. It is not clear just yet as to what CHI might need, but it will be for the Estimates 2025 process. As someone mentioned earlier, parts of the CHI service may be going beyond its current geographical remit.
