This is why 'care experienced' should be a protected characteristic. And this reminds me why it is so important for me to continue to guide the community to understanding that those in and leaving care are children and young people first
I once disclosed to an old work colleague I was in a children's home at 11, because my dad died and my family fell apart. He told the rest or the team to watch their belongings around me! Discrimination. There's millions more from care experienced people all over the country.
It's been a pleasure to work with #IMPOWER and other Local Authorities to develop our services, using Valuing Care to improve outcomes for our children and young people. An exciting year ahead!
So proud of everyone working within our New Roads Hubs. Amazing relationship based practice, working restoratively to support families to build their own plan, their own solutions that will sustain safety, family help when they need it so our children can Flourish 👏🏻
