Integrated Service For Looked After Children

Anna Carter – Operational Manager of ISL

Worcestershire County Council and Worcestershire NHS are fully committed to improving the life chances of our Looked After Children.

The Integrated Service for Looked After Children (ISL) is a multi-agency service that is working to improve the educational, social care, health care and community/leisure opportunities of every child and young person who may be in the looked after system, in a pre-adoptive placement or once they are adopted (0-7 years).

We have built a joined up, dedicated service with a wide range of multi-disciplinary professionals. We recognise that in order for children in the looked after system and those who have been adopted to succeed we must work holistically and as a team around every child and young person.

We hope that this handbook will be useful in explaining who we are, what we do and how you can contact us for support and advice.

I believe that we can enable Looked After and Adopted Children to have the same opportunities as every other child. We look forward to working with our partners in order to achieve our vision.
