Translation for management speak required

Post Reply New Topic

I wrote to the council about a group called the "Peer Connections Group" today who help people on the Autistic Spectrum, who our social worker advised us to contact.

I asked them what they do and got this reply back:

"We are a Campaign and Signposting group fro service users who are struggling to help themselves in achieving better access to those services. We provide them a voice into the type of tailored service of the organisations they require.
As you may be aware, these normal everyday services include HEalth, Wellbeing, Education, Employment, Transport, Emergency Services etc, are not "one size fits all."

We are there to assist to break down these barriers."

I don't understand anything that they've written. I think it's written in council management speak. I'm not trying to be facetious, but could someone please provide a translation of the above that I would understand?

Thank You grin emoticon

It essentially just appears to be:

"- We help you to find services that will help with your health, education, employment...
- We find services that will actually help you, based on your unique needs.
- If you can't get attention from the services that you need, we'll do it for you."

Basically they'll show you where there are services that you can benefit from, and help you to use those services.

O wow! I wouldnt have got that. Thanks so much!!

I am amazed at how badly written that nonsense is.

I am trying to write this in the shortest reasonable sentence:

We help people use council services.
