In this week’s episode Radical Reformers, I welcome back a duo we’ve had on the podcast before - Scott Darraugh from Social adVentures and Sophie Clarke from We Are Juno.
It’s a rich conversation that touches on topics we’ve been thinking about a lot here at Mutual Ventures, specifically around the challenges in children’s residential care:
The difficulty of finding suitable local placements so young people are close to their families and communities.
The need for a renewed focus on relationships and creating safe, trusting and inspiring environments for young people.
The role of Regional Care Cooperatives and the need for local authorities and organisations to work together to fix the challenges facing the children’s social care system.
This conversation also contains a strong message about ensuring all children and young people are not only kept safe - but have a “dare to dream” plan and the opportunity to find their “glimmer”. It’s very inspiring stuff!
