Committee details

The Corporate Parenting Board in Worcestershire provides leadership and a governance structure for corporate parenting in order to drive forward the outcomes for looked after children and care leavers. It oversees the Board's strategy and promotes our pledges to children in care and care leavers.  It promotes the voice of children and young people and is influential in decision making. It also provides challenge and scrutiny to ensure the best outcomes are achieved for children in care and care leavers.

The Board is not a public meeting.  As such attendance is by invitation or at the Chairman’s discretion.  It is in the list of meetings on our website alongside our public meetings as a way of being transparent about its work and encouraging others to understand its role and activity. There is no provision in its terms of reference for public attendance or participation at Corporate Parenting Board meetings.
