Big news! Following a debate at Full Council, we've agreed to award those with care experience in Camden protected characteristic status 👏
Free wifi will also be provided to care leavers up to 25!
This means more support for those in care and those who have care experience 🤍

New blog ✍️ Earlier this week, we held an event with colleagues from across the sector to reflect on the findings of our evaluation of #FamilyGroupConferencing and discuss next steps.
Our Chief Executive, @jocasebourne, shares her reflections: foundations.org.uk/blogs/kee…

ALT A Foundations branded oatmeal and teal quote card featuring an image of Foundations Chief Executive Dr Jo Casebourne in a round frame. Jo's head and shoulders are visible. She has straight medium-brown hair that hangs below her shoulders, and light skin. She is smiling. Jo is wearing a black jacket with white piping around the collar. The quote reads: “Finding out what works is only the start, and the event this week demonstrated that there is an open door to working with partners in Government and the sector to ensure that these findings turn into real-world change.” Find out more: foundations.org.uk.
Feeling a bit emotional…my last day in Newham. Thank you to all my wonderful colleagues for all your support and encouragement. It’s been challenging at times but also immensely rewarding…I’ve learnt so much and proud of all our achievements. Best of luck for the future!
