Connected support • No wrong door • Stay on track

Support that stays with you

Whatever challenges you're facing, New Ground connects you to the right support — and keeps everyone working together so you don't fall through the cracks.

How connected support works

You're not just a case number — everyone works together to support you

You

Tell your story once. Access all your support, referrals, and opportunities in one place. See your progress and who's helping.

Support Services

Councils, charities, and providers coordinate without duplication. They see what support you're getting and spot gaps early.

Employers

Hire with confidence knowing support is in place. Work with services to make employment sustainable and prevent crises.

Everyone stays connected

New Ground connects you, your support workers, and your employer (if you have one) so everyone is on the same page. When something comes up — a housing issue, a health crisis, or a job opportunity — everyone can respond quickly and work together.

When life gets difficult

New Ground makes sure you're not alone when challenges arise

We spot issues early

Because everyone's connected, warning signs don't get missed. If you stop showing up to work, your employer can alert your support worker. If you miss an appointment, services can reach out before things escalate.

Everyone responds together

When a crisis happens — a relapse, an eviction notice, a mental health emergency — your support team coordinates in real-time. No one is left wondering what's happening or duplicating efforts.

You stay on track

With connected support, setbacks don't mean starting over. Your employer knows what's happening and can offer flexibility. Services adjust your support plan. You keep moving forward instead of falling back to square one.
