The Children's Social Care team is committed to
promoting and safeguarding the welfare of children in need.
We work closely with children, young people and their parents,
relatives or other carers, and also with other organisations, to
find the best solution to any difficulties.
Under the Children Act 1989 a child is classed as 'in need'
if their health or welfare may significantly
suffer without receiving help from Social Services, or if they
are disabled.
The Children's Social Care team can do an assessment of
needs to see what help and support would be the most
appropriate.
