Children and Family Care

We provide many services for children, young people and their families. Our aim is to ensure the safety and well being of children and to support families through challenging periods.

This is accomplished by applying the services that are offered through the children and families department within the Royal Borough.  These include adoption and fostering services, respite care and child protection services to name but a few. 

To learn how these services can help you and for information relating to specific areas within the children and families department, please follow the links at the bottom of this page.  If a particular service does not appear to be available, we may still be able to help guide you to assistance from outside of the social services department.

If you are already a Children & Families service user, and you have recently had a change of circumstance, or a change of your details has occured, please let us know by clicking on the following link, and filling out the Change of Circumstances Online Form.

If you are interested in services for Children and Families, or you think you might benefit from any service provided by the Children and Families Team and you would like us to contact you by phone or email, please click the following link and complete the Social Services Contact Us/Self Referral Online Form and someone will be in touch with you as soon as possible.
