Our online advice forums are an anonymous space where parents and kinship carers (also known as family and friends carers) can get legal and practical advice, build a support network and learn from other people’s experiences.
Our get help and advice section has template letters, advice sheets and resources about legal and social care processes. On Monday and Wednesday afternoons, you can use our webchat service to chat online to an adviser.
See our Children’s services page for helpful information about how children’s services should work with children and families. And see our Care (and related) proceedings page for more information about the stages or care proceedings, who should be involved and how the Family Court will make decisions.
