If the parent is satisfied with the arrangements, why does Children Social Care need to be involved?
• Any child living away from home is vulnerable and so visits which focus on the child’s well being can help to safeguard him or her • A child who is privately fostered should be looked after as well as any other child who, for example, lives with foster parents who are approved by the Local Authority • Children’s Social Care can access information (with the carer’s permission) which would not be made available to parents.
