Feedback time…..what are the main changes needed to protect and support missing children

Table 3 are discussing how effective is the national policy and guidance framework underpinning the response to missing children

The event is in full flow, table 1 are discussing the scale of the issue, the risks associated with going missing and regional variations.

Today we will be holding our first stakeholder event with service providers and academics who have experience of ‘missing children’ for our inquiry into Children and young people on the margins.

After discussing a letter from Universities Wales about the participation of Welsh young people in higher education, we have written to Lynne Neagle raising these concerns.
