Hello all
Just wanted to let you know what’s happening with This Is My Child.
We’ve been really keen to do something on how some local authorities make it difficult for families to gain access to statutorily mandated support (for health, social care and/or education.)
But given that the new Children and Families Act will have a big impact on the service-provision landscape, we think it’s best to wait until the Act has been fully implemented (which is due to happen in September), and then ask for your views on how it’s working, and make some noise with the results.
In the meantime, we’re going to be putting up a (hopefully) informative and useful page about the statementing process, and arranging some webchats following the enthusiastic reception for Professor Richard Hastings; let us know if you have any suggestions.
Finally, two things you may be interested in: there’s a thread running here about the possibility of us doing some material on invisible disabilities in adults, and a thread here about what would be on your policy wishlist for the main parties, so please let us know what you think.
Thanks
MNHQ
