We champion meaningful family participation through Family Group Conferencing, Family Led Meetings and consistent use of genograms and ecomaps. Families also benefit from our award winning Family Information Service, a strengthened parenting offer and one of the best care leaver services in the country. Ofsted recognised the strength of our culture and approach: "Senior leaders and politicians are relentless in their drive to continue to improve the lives of Cornwall's children and families Staff's care, commitment and child focused approach shine through." - Ofsted, July 2024 Cornwall offers forward thinking social work in a place where wellbeing comes first. With stunning coastlines, strong communities and a culture that values balance and professional pride, this is a service where practitioners thrive - and where your leadership will shape the future of children's services.
