Hi and welcome. You raise a few issues, and I'll possibly make some incorrect assumptions. Apologies if so. 1. Parents being unreliable is an issue many of us have had to deal with. I can only suggest that you write, text or similar that you are happy that mum has contact, but you are not happy the ...

If can do it on an agreed trial basis, then it's just a case of putting to the court as a position agreed between parties, so the court just rubber stamp the decision to deal with the formal legal position. Certainly under current restrictions, it's likely to be all done remotely with perhaps a vide...

Hi @Cazdob and welcome here. I believe the social worker to be mistaken.

Yes, just ask the question. .

Good luck ... Robin

Fingers crossed for you.

Unless you are party to proceedings you may get to see nothing. If you are party, much is likely to come on the day of the advocates meeting. If not a party, you will need to apply to the court for 'leave to apply'. Speak to the court office. The paperwork is not too difficult but there is a fee to ...

You would probably be best advised to call the advice line on 0808 801 0366 9.30am to 3pm. They are still taking calls but are also rather busy.

Hi and welcome. The advice sheet at https://www.frg.org.uk/images/Advice_Sheets/11-powers-and-duties-of-local-authorities.pdf gives you most of the information you need. Page 10 onwards is specifically useful, but please take the time to read it all. Childrens Services should place within the family...
