The South East is leading the way in thinking as systems leaders for both the emotional health and social welfare needs of our Children in Care, for whom we’re all Corporate Parents. A recent webinar hosted by NIROMP South East Region, captures the dialogue in a South East Community of Practice event with NHS and wider colleagues.
In the webinar – which you can watch below, we focus on the Children in Care Clinical and Practice Guide. This provides a practical overview of best evidenced practice in recognising, understanding, supporting and monitoring change in the emotional wellbeing and mental health needs of our Children in Care.

- Beverley Barnett-Jones from Nuffield Family Justice Observatory
