Over the past 6 months Brian Jones, Chief Executive Officer of the SENAD Group has been part of a children’s taskforce exploring how the commissioning and delivery of services can be improved to achieve better outcomes for looked after children and young people with complex needs. The taskforce combined the expertise of the Chidren’s Services Development Group(CDSG) which consists of providers of care and specialist education for children and young people with complex needs, and members of the Local Government Information Unit (LGiU).
The work has focused on understanding the latest thinking and current trends within the sector, and developing an evidence base highlighting innovative work that is being implemented to deliver specialist needs-focused care and support for vulnerable young people.
By working in partnership the taskforce has been able to generate ideas for solutions and recommendations for improved working across the sector.
