A lunchtime webinar exploring how we meet the promise’s vision for how we care for experienced children and young people in Scotland's rural areas. It looked at:
- The ways the promise is shaping social work practice, work across services and approaches to ensuring the voices and experiences of children, young people and families are at the heart of what we do?
- How Plan 24-30, launched in June, can help us in our journey towards the promise’s vision for 2030? What needs adding to it, particularly in the context of work alongside children and families in rural settings?
