The Managed Referral Pathway

Step 1: Formal Referral

The Link Worker identifies an individual and facilitates a "warm handover" to our dedicated TBI Hub Coordinator.

Step 2: Personal Onboarding

The TBI Broker provides a crucial 1-to-1 welcome, explaining the empowering model and helping them identify their skills and needs.

Step 3: Facilitated Connection

The Broker actively facilitates the member's first exchanges and invites them to high-impact activities like 'Meitheals'.

Step 4: Follow-up & Outcomes

TBI provides anonymised feedback to the Link Worker on member engagement and reports on wellbeing and social connection outcomes.
