@AshleyJBaptiste@Hannah_CEPSW this is shocking practice. On inspection we stress that case records are an individual's child's story and should be written with this in mind. Inspectors will challenge if this is not the case. I think practice is improving but still some way to go.

@Acsocialwork similarly it is often too easy to gloss over the real damage and neglect children experience when services are inadequate. I think this has to be called out.

@diaz_clive This system can of course be improved but I think compared internationally it does a pretty good job protecting children. The clue is in the title.
Our friend and colleague Helen Blackman recently passed away. She sat on our board for over three years and was a tireless advocate for children and young people in @MyNottingham and beyond. Her big smile, compassion and unstinting kindness will never be forgotten by any of us
