A call has been made for investment in services for children in care and young adults who have left the care system, following the latest volume of the Child Law Project reports.
The reports, published on Monday, highlight issues including recruitment and retention issues in relation to social work staff, children being placed far from their families, and vulnerable children being put in unregistered emergency settings.
