- Description
This session will mark the half way point since Scotland made the promise to care experience children and young people, that they will grow up loved, safe and respected. The promise was made following the conclusion of the Independent Care Review.
On February 5th, exactly five years since the promise was made, The Oversight Board, whose role it is to hold Scotland to account for keeping the promise, will publish their latest report, Report THREE.
This session will give people the first opportunity to hear the key finding from this report, with presentations from The Oversight Board reflecting on progress in key areas, including workplaces, whole family support and the care community’s views of progress.
After reflecting on where we have got to so far, Fiona Duncan, Independent Strategic Advisor, the promise, will present on what still needs to be done to be able to keep the promise by 2030.
Fiona, who was also the chair of the Independent Care Review, will talk about Plan 24-30, Scotland’s route map to keeping the promise, looking at how the plan can be used as a tool to help those working in the ‘care system’ to plan and deliver the changes needed.
There will also be space for questions and discussion.
