Protecting Children - Supporting Foster Carers: Dealing with an allegation (September 2009)
Foster carers, like other childcare workers, can find themselves facing allegations about the quality of their care. It is always important that such allegations are taken seriously and investigated properly as experience has shown that, on rare occasions, children are ill-treated by the very people who are supposed to care for them.
This publication is aimed at foster carers and their families, but it will also be helpful to childcare workers involved in investigations of foster carers, looked after young people, their advocates and birth families.

Doing Better for Children (1st September 2009)
The well-being of children is high on the policy agenda across the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). But what is the actual state of child well-being today? How much are governments spending on children and are they spending it at the right times? What social and family policies have the most impact during children’s earliest years? Is growing up in a single-parent household detrimental to children? Is inequality that persists across generations a threat to child well-being? Doing Better for Children addresses these questions and more.
