Care Leavers with no contact to Council services
Verbal Update
Minutes:
NOTED the verbal report of the Assistant Director of Safeguarding & Social Care on care leavers with no contact with Council services. Children’s services undertook a data return on the birthday of 17-21 year olds in care. This took place 1 month prior to their birthday and three months after their birthday to ascertain whether they were in suitable accommodation and whether they were in education, training or employment. The definition of whether they were in touch was whether they had been in contact during that 4 month period.
The Chair requested that any further detail around care leavers with no contact with Council services be sent to the clerk to circulate with the minutes. (Action: Emma Cummergen).
