Central Bedfordshire Council, Luton Council and Bedford Borough Council have secured government support to develop a new fostering hub to help recruit, approve and support more foster carers across the area.
We celebrated our foster carers at a ‘Celebration of Fostering’ event this weekend, recognising 15 households who together have given an incredible 105 years of dedicated fostering service.
Young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) who are helping us improve local services were the first to experience Woburn Safari Park’s new SEND education centre.
Key milestones have been reached in new additional resource provision (ARP) projects, increasing specialist school places for children and young people with SEND in Central Bedfordshire.
This week marks Social Work Week, a time dedicated to celebrating the invaluable contributions of social workers and shedding light on the diverse roles within the profession.
Central Bedfordshire Council has approved a multi-million-pound investment in education over the next 4 years, reaffirming its commitment to providing high-quality learning environments for children.
We're updating our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Strategy and are inviting children, young people, parent carers, and professionals to share their views.
We're excited to launch Mockingbird, an innovative model aimed at strengthening support for foster carers and creating a secure, nurturing environment for children in care.
