Following further discussions with Carole Goodman (Cafcass), we have agreed to survey IROs and children’s Guardian’s about the impact of the joint protocol.

I will be contacting all regional chairs for their member details please. This is in order that the survey can be sent to members of all regionals.

In addition, the survey can be completed via the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/9PH3VY9

It is important that we get a good response to this survey, so we can have a better understanding of what’s working well and areas for improvement.

We intend to use the results of the survey to inform future learning and development events, to consider what else may need to be added to our toolkit and to complete any updates to the protocol.

The survey deadline is end April 2015 and we aim to share the results by July/August 2015.

With thanks in anticipation of your support.
