Our Mission
To make finding support simple, accessible, and empowering. Team Around You brings together a comprehensive directory of services so that every person — regardless of background or circumstance — can identify their needs and connect with the help that's right for them.
Our Vision
A world where no one navigates life's challenges alone. We envision connected communities where people can easily discover, evaluate, and access the services they need — and where support organisations work together to wrap around every individual.
A single place for all kinds of support
Team Around You is a living directory that signposts people to services across a wide range of needs. Whatever support you're looking for, we help you find it.
What guides everything we do
These principles shape how we build, maintain, and grow Team Around You.
Inclusivity
Support isn't just for those in crisis. Whether you're facing hardship or simply want to improve your wellbeing, Team Around You is for everyone.
Empowerment
We believe people thrive when they're in the driver's seat. Our platform helps you understand your needs, set priorities, and take meaningful steps forward.
Accuracy
Our directory is only as good as its information. We're committed to keeping listings current, verified, and genuinely useful through community collaboration.
Collaboration
Great outcomes happen when people and organisations work together. We connect the dots between services so support is seamless and coordinated.
Transparency
We encourage informed choices. Our platform helps you research, compare, and verify services so you can approach them with confidence.
Community-Driven
Team Around You belongs to everyone who uses it. Organisations and individuals alike help us keep information accurate and up to date.
From discovery to progress, in four steps
Team Around You guides you through a simple journey — helping you understand your needs, find the right services, and take action.
Explore Your Needs
Browse our categories to identify where support could make a difference. Working with a support worker? Use Team Around You together to ensure nothing gets missed.
Discover Services
Search and filter to find organisations that match your needs. Compare options, read details, and build a shortlist of services that feel right for you.
Connect & Engage
Reach out to your shortlisted services. Ask questions, understand their process, and choose the support that fits best.
Grow & Review
Embrace the support you've found and track your progress. Revisit your needs periodically — life changes, and so might the services that best support you.
Built for individuals and organisations alike
Team Around You serves anyone seeking support — and the professionals who help them get there.
Individuals & Families
Whether you're navigating a difficult time or simply want to access services in your area, Team Around You helps you discover what's available, assess what's right, and take the first step with confidence.
Support Workers & Organisations
Use Team Around You alongside your assessments to ensure comprehensive coverage of your client's needs. It's a powerful complement to existing processes, helping surface services that might otherwise be missed.
Your safety is our priority
Team Around You is a signposting service — we list a wide range of organisations to help you find support. While we strive for accuracy, we encourage everyone to take a few sensible steps before engaging with a new service.
- Check organisation websites and social media for consistency with our listing
- Look up registrations on Companies House, Ofsted, or relevant regulators
- Read reviews and feedback from other people who have used the service
- Confirm referral criteria — some services are tailored to specific groups
- Spot something wrong? Edit the listing to flag it — our team will review
A note on safeguarding
Team Around You is a signposting platform, not a regulated service. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, always contact the emergency services on 999. For non-urgent safeguarding concerns, reach out to your local authority's safeguarding team.
If you're under 18, we strongly encourage you to use this website with a trusted adult.
