Hello has anyone had any experience of attending a family group conference would really appreciate any guidance or advice on what is involved.as we have just received a letter saying that one is to be arranged if the children's parents agree haven't a clue what to expect ?

Hi nannydunn.

The best source of factual information is to be found at the following advice sheet. http://frg.org.uk/images/Advice_Sheets/ ... erence.pdf

generally people find Family Group Conferences to be useful. If done properly it empowers the wider family to make the decisions about the children. Any plan may need to be 'challenged' to ensure that it's been thought through and is sustainable.

Probably best to read through the advice sheet and post back with specific questions.

Best wishes ..... Robin
