My 5 children were placed under an ICO April 22. March 23 the LA changed the care plans to reunification of all 5 children to my care (3 children home May 29, 2 home July 24) all other parties supported this. The transition started and my contact went to supported (supervisor there at start and end)...

We had our IRH today which was ideally also going to be the final hearing but once again the LA never filed the correct papers.

Hi Suzie, Thank you for taking the time to reply. My children will be returned to me as sole carer. The father of this baby will not be on the scene, he was a 1 night stand and I have no contact details for him.

My 5 children were removed from my care back in April under an interim care order. Main concern from the LA was my mental health (depression) they said I was ‘emotionally unavailable’ to my children and that I showed them no love or affection. This has never been true but I understand from the LA po...

My 5 children are currently in foster care (3 different placements) I requested to be referred for a new family group conference so that we can create a safety plan for the children to return home in case I have a mental Heath crisis again so that I know my children are protected as much as possible...

I contacted the IRO and she contacted the LA and gave them a kick up the butt. She said they need to start the assessment ASAP. She said to give it a week and if we still have no plan/start date to contact her again and she will chase it further
