Fair Deal for families?

Fair deal for families? is a report that we produced on behalf of the Working Together with Parents Network. This report contains four stories, all of which are the experiences of four families where one or both parents has a learning disability. It also includes some research where four children whose parents have a learning disability talk about their experiences.

The experiences of these families have one thing in common: services have not managed to give them the support they need. Some families could not get any services at all. Others were only offered support that they did not need. Some families were targeted and did not see social work services being able to help with this. Others were frightened of social work services in case they came to take their children away.
