Care Experienced Children and Young People: Making Policing in Your Area Better

Results updated 20 Dec 2024

The Policing Together, Children and Young People Team, are delighted to present our new Corporate Parenting Plan 2024-2027.

We would like to thank everyone involved in this process, which includes our members of the Corporate Parenting Plan Advisory Group and Police Scotland’s Care Experienced Colleagues Group. A special thanks to Zander Newman and Hope Taylor, our two Youth Engagement Officers who were recruited to design, deliver, and evaluate an engagement and participation programme which involved a survey and a series of focus groups.

Many people helped create this plan, but the most important input came from children and adults with experience of care. Their views and advice have helped our team understand more about our Care Experienced Community and we will continue to engage them on Corporate Parenting matters in future.

Through consultation we have made the decision to create two separate Corporate Parenting Plans. We have a Summary Plan which has been written in a clear and concise style that's easier to understand, as well as a Full Plan which goes into more detail, outlining Police Scotland’s goals, and how we will achieve them.
