Disability and Care Experience: Learning from the Bright Spots Programme

Drawing on Coram Voice’s recent report, Disability, Disparity and Demand, this free webinar will look at what we do (and importantly what we don't know) about the experiences of these children growing up in the care system. We’ll hear from one of the authors of the report, Dr Claire Baker, as well as other experts in the field.

This webinar is brought to you by the Garden Court Chambers Community Care Law and Education Law Teams, jointly with Coram Children’s Legal Centre. The Law Commission recently consulted on restructuring the law on disabled children’s social care. This webinar will discuss some of the different perspectives on the potential changes.
