A damning report into children’s social care services was debated in November Tynwald, painting a very bleak picture for children in care or leaving care at 16. The report found that a lack of adequate support systems to promote the safety and well-being of these children is significantly failing them, the impact of substance misuse on children is of significant concern, and too many children do not have access to appropriate education, training or employment. We consider these findings on Agenda. Lets hope that 2024 brings more comfort to these vulnerable children.
