During the last year the Forum have continued to provide opportunities for CPD, peer review and audit. The group is led by Dr Sraboni Dasgupta, Associate Specialist at Birmingham Community Healthcare NHSFT and Dr Fiona Goodwin, Consultant Paediatrician at Wye Valley NHS Trust; with Forum meetings always incorporating an education element to them.
The LAC Forum have formed links with the Head of Safeguarding within the NHS England (National Team) and have maintained links with CoramBAAF. Over the next year, the Forum plan to ensure work links well with Commissioners, highlighting any significant issues and working closely together for the benefit of the Children and Young People across the Midlands.
