We want to create better future outcomes for those in our care – and delivering the actions of our Families Review is a big part of this. Good to hear yesterday about our progress in this vital area.

Great to see colleagues in YCS and Oasis Restore open the doors to our first secure school this week for experience days.
Thankful to partners across youth justice attending or even staying over. Chance to walk in our children's shoes and gain insight into this landmark reform.

Positive and productive day at Oakhill yesterday. Fantastic to see first-hand the progress that Ofsted observed in their recent report. Well done to all!
Particularly grateful to colleagues supporting the small number of very vulnerable and high risk girls in our care.

Thank you to John Pearce and congratulations to Andy Smith on his inauguration as the new President for the 🌈Updates from ADCS.
To lead an organisation whose goal is to improve the lives of children and young people in this country is a privilege beyond measure.

We are pleased that staff from HMYOIWerrington joined us today to present access to regime. This was followed by a discussion around the challenges in opening a regime to all. With thanks to HMYOI Wetherby for running a session on best safeguarding practices at the establishment.

Ed Cornmell, Executive Director of the Youth Custody Service delivers a closing address at our Youth Complaints Symposium event on what has been a fascinating and informative day! Thanks to all that attended.
