Abstract

A response to the question: Safeguarding not scapegoating, professionals in children’s services. What is required to improve the work conditions, recruitment and morale of professionals involved with child safeguarding services to ensure better joint working practice and a reduction in child maltreatment and deaths?
This report is a summary of findings of a Route Mapping event, held at the House of Lords on 11th May 2009 and introduced by Baroness Glenys Thornton, to inform services and the Social Work Task Force in relation to the current crisis in children’s services. It was organised by the Centre for Abuse and Trauma Studies (CATS) a new centre for research, training and knowledge exchange in health, social care and criminal justice services across two universities in London (Royal Holloway, University of London and Kingston University). The Route Mapping format is a highly structured and active problem-solving approach to provide solutions in a one-day meeting of key experts, a method pioneered and mediated by experts from the University of Cambridge.
