Questionnaire for Practitioners working with/supporting Children, Young People and Families in Sandwell

Why this questionnaire is being undertaken?
Most families need some support from time to time. We believe that every family should be able to get the support they need, when they need it, no matter their background.

Data has been provided by Sandwell partners to explore whether or not disproportionality exists within local systems for minority ethnic groups and particularly for black Caribbean boys as well as what barriers there may be for all groups in terms of accepting and accessing early help services
14% of white British children would have consent denied or withdrawn by a parent for Early Help support. This is in comparison to 23% of children from a non-white British ethnic background.
We want to hear your experiences and ideas about what changes could be made to help children, young people and their families get the right support, in the right place, at the right time.
