A PAIN CASE RELATING BACK TO 2004-VERY LITTLE HAS CHANGED IN THE CHILD PROTECTION INDUSTRY SINCE CLEVELAND

Emma and Martin did what any parent would do when they found a lump on their baby's head: they took him to their GP,

who sent them to the local hospital. There, doctors called social

services, who took the little boy into care and have now arranged his

adoption. Cassandra Jardine speaks to the parents about their nightmare

– and hears how a closed and seemingly inflexible system might be

reformed


Emma and Martin's home in Essex is filled…

miracle, Public Law with regards to care proceedings is a very diverse

form of legal procedure.

Things could have turned out very different and I hate to say it, if that team of solicitors had continued to
