Children in Care Council Update - Presentation of young people from the Children in Care Council

Minutes:

Billie-Leigh and Luke delivered a presentation on CiCC highlights during the month (for copy of presentation see file of minutes). 

 

Highlights included the quarterly meeting with the Chief Executive at which the young people shared their ideas and opinions on how the Council is meeting its corporate parenting responsibilities.

 

The ‘Know, What, When’ guide had been finalised and the guide will ensure that young people are aware of what to expect when entering care.  The CiCC Christmas quiz was planned by the young people and it had been a resounding success.

 

The Panel noted that Care Day 2024 will take place on Saturday 17 February 2024 and the event will premiere the #morethancare film.  Rob Johnson, Project Manager of Investing in Children, explained that a young person who is keen to study media at university had been central to the production of the film.  Members were encouraged to attend the event and share the event leaflet, within their networks.
