Nothing is more important than children’s welfare. Every child deserves to grow up in a
safe, stable, and loving home. Children who need help and protection deserve high quality
and effective support. This requires individuals, agencies, and organisations to be clear
about their own and each other’s roles and responsibilities, and how they work together.
