Children in care to have counsellor automatically assigned
Make it a mandatory that all children in care have a counsellor assigned to them, throughout care and once they have left. The counselling is then always available, they are made aware of what counselling can help with, and they can access this support if they’d like to.
I think there are too many children / adults that have been seriously affected by spending time the in social care system. I think that all children who are or have been in care should have a counsellor automatically assigned to them, who they contact if they’d like to see them. I believe this is something that should always be available, to ensure that these people receive additional support for their own healing.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
