Another disappointing court ruling for children in care. Placing children halfway across the country – away from school, friends, and family – happens far too often, disrupts vital relationships, and undermines any sense of stability. Reform is desperately needed.
Good Law Project@GoodLawProject

We have yet to decide whether to appeal. But we intend to continue to fight for the children whose parents cannot look after them, and who are also being let down by the local authorities who are supposed to help them. glplive.org/cic-3003-tw

@_LisaCherry @SonnetSmith @TerryGalloway Fully agree we both felt like we were on a conveyor belt out of care - hardly any check ins - as if corporate parents felt that suddenly at 16 we were ok to face the big bad world alone - the times where we had to be the most resilient but felt very lonely 😊
