The real success of SAIL is you!

Engagement from practitioners and integration in training materials and resources at a local level will help make SAIL move from paper to practice. 

In launching SAIL we asked practitioners, managers and service leaders to share practical actions that they can take to embed SAIL – this is what they committed to:

Whilst these commitments are beginning to reflect how practitioners are using SAIL in their day-to-day work – there is much more to do.

We invite you to lead on integrating SAIL into practice through your local channels and/or regional networks – and to let us know if there is anything we can do to support this.
