Your rights to be heard when you are in contact with children’s services

This guide helps children and young and people know their rights and be taken seriously if a family court is making decisions about them.

It also aims to help if they have or think they need a social worker, they live in a children’s home or with foster carers, they have been adopted or if they are in contact with a youth offending team. It will also help them get help if they are disabled or if they are an asylum seeker.

This guide is part of a 5 part set called Your rights to be heard. All of the guides are available as free downloads or for just £3 for the set of hard copies.
