Family contact centres
See notes
I am undertaking research into the availability and quality of contact centres for Looked After Children and their families in London and surrounding areas. I am undertaking research to see whether the way we this for children and their families could be improved, whilst at the same time saving local authorities’ resources. I would be grateful if you could provide the following information:
1. Which centres/services does Wokingham BC use to arrange supervised family contact for children and young people in care?
2. How many of your LAC currently attend regular supervised contact with family members either in the community or at a centre?
3. How many contact centre sessions were procured in the last financial year?
4. What proportion of contact is held in external contact centres (as opposed to Local Authority buildings)?
5. What did the Local Authority spend on commissioning external contact centres and services in the last financial year?
