  • Special Guardianship

    I am a little confused to say the least. I have been allocated a special guardianship assessment which the court has directed that Nan to the children (who are at present with LA foster carers) be assessed for.

  • Re: Judges blasts East Sussex

    I don't think the media can be accused of "jumping on the case". Reading through the judges actual written submissions reveals that East Sussex have done a huge disservice to the social care profession. I would struggle to imagine how the assersions of the likes of John Hemmings MP and...
