In March 2024 SiCC & SLCC worked with the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory (NFJO) on a project to find out the thoughts and views of children and young people on the five principles of care for children with complex needs and circumstances, including those with Deprivation of Liberty orders (DoLs).
Volunteers were recruited for the project from SiCC & SLCC, including lead volunteer Leon Isaac. Next a survey was designed and sent out to social workers who were supporting young people on a DoL and interviews were carried out with young care experienced young people.
The results from the survey and the interviews were collected together and sent to the NFJO who put together a report on based on the findings.
