There is a Core Group Meeting every 4 weeks while the Child Protection plan is in place.

People who might be at the Core Group are parents/carers, close family members, the social worker, school or nursery, the Health Visitor or School Nurse and anyone else supporting the family, like Parent Advocates.

People at the meeting will share updates about the progress of the plan.
