Aim:

What are the frontline practitioners’ experiences of increasing Care Orders at home?

Objectives:

1. To draw from statistical data of partnership authorities to emphasise the extent of the problem faced;

2. To explore with frontline social workers and team managers their experiences of Care Orders at home, including: challenges; fears/anxieties;

3. To give frontline practitioners ‘a voice’ in regards to this research area, by embedding their testimonies within the research findings;

4. To produce and publish findings that can serve as a platform to challenge this ‘troubling tendency’.

Partners: Edge Hill University and Liverpool John Moores University
