Resource Information

  • Description: Social workers need a better understanding of how to work with older, vulnerable looked-after young people, the Independent Children’s Homes Association has warned. In a statement, the organisation said it fears knowledge and experience of such young people, including those in residential care, is 'diminishing' among social workers. The comments follow an increased political focus on residential care after it emerged that a girl who was sexually abused by a gang of men in Rochdale lived in a children's home in the borough.
