The SIP includes statutory, voluntary and independent sector organisations that offer information and advice and deliver services to support people in Suffolk.
The aim of the Partnership is to work together to provide clear, consistent, quality information to customers and a seamless journey for those needing to access services.
The Warm Handover Referral Scheme
The Suffolk Information Partnership manages a secure, online referral process to support vulnerable customers and clients and help them access services that they may not be able to on their own: Warm Handover Referrals.
If an individual would like to be referred to organisations in the Scheme, or a professional feels it is in their best interests, their personal details and support needs can be safely and swiftly passed on to partner organisations who will get in touch with the client to offer support. This means that the client only needs to tell their story once. The process is underpinned by an Information Sharing Agreement that outlines the data protection responsibilities of each partner, and a Privacy Statement.
