More children in need, fewer needing Protection: What’s really going on?
This week, Vince and Cara unpack new national figures showing rising numbers of children identified as “in need,” but fewer placed on child protection plans. Our hosts explore whether stretched services, higher thresholds, and workforce pressures are shaping how risk is managed on the frontline. Is early help keeping families safe, or masking hidden harm as demand continues to climb?
Join the conversation every Friday morning. Created by social workers, for social workers.
