Steps involved and process

Unread post by Aldermoor » Tue Jul 21, 2026 12:20 am

Hi All,

My children are taken into foster care, followed by a domestic argument between mom and daughter. Could anyone guide me what are the initial steps, process, IRO meeting, risk assessments, timelines, Section 20 etc. everything is new to us and struggling not getting a solicitor to advise too.

The shared friend family assessment is still not started. Our risk assessment not done yet.. it’s already 3 weeks now with just safety plan in hand and kids were allowed to be seen 1 hr twice a week.

Appreciate some guidance here ?

Thanks
