Working together to keep children safe and well when parents have learning difficulties.
A serious case review, where parental learning difficulties were a factor in the serious injury of a child, prompted review and strengthening of the collaborative work between universal children's services and specialist adult learning disability services. Focus groups enabled wider knowledge of the factors that were barriers to good partnership work, and those factors that required strengthening. Consideration of research findings and literature review has informed the development of a local protocol that focuses on the safety and wellbeing of children.
