Yesterday was my last day in the children’s front door team, Monday I go back to my roots in an assessment team; one of the minority who return. Let the challenge commence 👏🏽
Together for Children’s Disability Team, along with our friends from Grace House Short Break Service, have put to good use their MAKATON training!
Both teams would like to wish all of our children, young people and families a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
Proud to work for Darlington 😊 Great feedback for the service provided at the front door - happy for the LA as a whole but especially proud of our little CIAT team 👏🏽
Delighted, humbled and immensely proud to be able to share our Ofsted outcome with our wonderful staff. Darlington are officially GOOD with Outstanding services for Children in Care and Care Leavers!!

Hidden children, hidden carers. Now a @JohnLewisRetail Christmas advert. We have travelled such a long way to visibility shared so sensitively. JL doing so much practically for CEP too. One demonstration of how we tackle stigma ❤️
COME AND WORK IN OUR TEAM! Amazing opportunity to join us as the Relational & Restorative Practice Lead. This non case holding Advanced Practitioner role will support the development of Relational and Restorative Practice throughout Darlington. #lovedarlo

When a call 'to order pizza' becomes an urgent plea for help...📞
We received a 999 call – but when it was answered, the woman on the line said she would like to order a pizza.
Our call handler immediately asked the woman if she was in trouble, to which she confirmed “yes”.
