What is Looked After Child Limited?
From the UK. this website shares Life Story Work, Blog Posts About Looked after children (Children in care), mental health, addiction and homelessness to name a few things. Our Main Author is Li Jean-Luc Harris who founded the site as a brand. which spun of from his original blog where he used to write and publish his life stories. Although he wanted to build a central place that could offer advice for both Care Workers, but also Children In Care, and care leavers.
But we are more then just that. Check out our Better Care Goal
Chronology / Life Story Work With Looked After Child
We Believe that every Story is Important, it not only reinforces the story that the Looked After Child has had. to show them how far they have come. but it also gives professionals so much information on how they can improve their work. you see; everyone works differently. one method dose not work for everyone so its important that we adapt and work with different methods. essentially growing a toolkit that can work for everyone
