Family and friends

All young people have the right to communicate with their family and friends, unless it is not safe to do so. Your Foster Carer/Key Worker and Social Worker know how important this is and will support you to do this.

If you have family and friends in the UK who you would like to see, your Foster Carer/Key Worker and Social Worker can help to arrange this.

Sometimes it may not be a good idea for you to communicate with a member of your family or a friend. If this happens, your Social Worker should always explain why you are not able to communicate with them.
