Measures of wellbeing for children in care

The National Children’s Bureau (NCB) is currently undertaking research on what measures, tools or indicators are used to assess the wellbeing of children in care. 

NCB is interested in finding out more about how information on wellbeing is collected and used by those working with children in care, from managers to practitioners, which might include foster carers, counsellors, designated doctors and residential home managers. The research is funded by John Paul Getty Junior Charitable Trust.

You can tell NCB more about your experiences of using measures of wellbeing for children in care by taking part in our ten minute survey: https://www.snapsurveys.com/wh/s.asp?k=146919487933

NCB is also interested in speaking to managers and practitioners in more detail by telephone. If you would like to volunteer for a short telephone interview, then please contact Rebekah Ryder, Senior Researcher at NCB on rryder@ncb.org.uk, 020 7833 6811 or submit your details using this form: http://ncb.org.uk/measuring-the-wellbeing-of-children-in-care   

Feel free to contact Rebekah (rryder@ncb.org.uk) if you have any questions about the research.
