So proud 🥰
We had an amazing celebration event this afternoon - celebrating all of the amazing families we have the pleasure to work with and the amazing partnership working that goes on in Sandwell @CathyAnnJames @SctSteven @SimoneFoxMST
Using drugs & alcohol can increase the risk of experiencing mental health difficulties. Starting a conversation with someone about how they are feeling can often help, so please get talking. #YouthMentalHealthDay #StrideForward #teamDECCA
Our Chief Executive, Emma Taylor delivering a powerful message to staff and partners during our AGM… ‘that’s what families do’ @Jacqui_Smith1 @SctSteven @SCTcarol @ParticipationSC @TomDaviesSCT
Spent a great day at West Brom FC with our amazing Sandwell family. So pleased to be back together, better still that we can celebrate our fostering service being judged by Ofsted as GOOD in all categories. Very proud of the team, an amazing achievement. Well deserved.
Afternoon spent speaking to and hearing from @sandwellct staff, partners and young people about the @reviewCSC. Good discussion about how we get back to principles of the ‘89 Children Act.
Great @sandwellct AGM with young people presenting, our rt @Jacqui_Smith1 taking us through our journey, our chief executive and @JoshMacAlister asking us how the system can be improved as part of government review on Social Services.
Luv Sandwell ❤

Everyone loves a cuppa and a natter. So we're looking forward to having a virtual coffee morning on Friday, with some of our amazing foster carers. Let's make everyday a #TimeToTalk Day!
February is LGBT+ History Month, which we are proud to support. This year the theme is ‘Body, Mind, Spirit’ and like the last few years, is linked to a National Curriculum subject. To find out more visit lgbtplushistorymonth.co.uk
Did you know that @SWBCCG provide our young people with a summary of their health history prior to their 18th birthday. Great work via the Care Leavers HealthPassport app 😊
Decca is still open Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm. If you would like support or you have concerns about a young person email [email protected] and one of the team will be in touch #HereToHelp #drugandalcoholsupport #drugeducation
Sandwell Council will be funding free school meals during the February half-term holiday. Schools will get in touch with parents and carers to arrange for vouchers for eligible families. No child should be hungry ❤
We listen. We support. We care. Black Country Women’s Aid is an independent charity which has supported survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence in the West Midlands for 30 years. Our services are still open during lockdown. Call us on 0121 553 0090. #itsnotok
