The unit aims to promote and facilitate collaborative learning among those who work with people experiencing multiple disadvantage1; promoting innovation and good working practices across Nottingham and neighbouring areas.
1 Multiple disadvantage refers to people who experience two or more of the following: homelessness, substance misuse, mental ill-health and offending. People who face these disadvantages often experience other issues, including poor physical health, domestic and sexual abuse, and community isolation.
