CAN WE FIX HOW WE LOOK AFTER CHILDREN IN CARE?
Government cuts, unregulated care homes, and inadequate staff training – campaigner and care home consultant Chris Wild has seen it all.
The low standards and frequent abuse of children in care have long been a focal point of his loud message: we are failing our young people, and something needs to change.
Chris delves deep into the lives of care home kids, exploring issues such as:
- County lines and drugs
- Trafficking and knife crime
- Gang violence and child exploitation
- Sexual abuse
These stories are told through the lens of the voiceless – the children who have been left behind – and are compounded by Chris's own personal experiences of growing up in care.
Key Questions Explored
- How is the care system failing our young people and controlling just who and what they can become?
- What help do we really give children after their time in care is over, as they are left to fend for themselves?
- Is it too late to fix the state of it?
