Your carers are there to help and advise you, and our social workers and support workers are there to support both you and them to make your time with Community Foster Care as happy and worthwhile as is possible.
Sometimes things may happen that cause you to be unhappy. If so, please make sure someone knows how you feel; it is your right to complain.
If you want to make a complaint, you should try to discuss it with your carer or social worker. If that is not possible or you do not feel satisfied that your complaint has been listened to, you can complain to Community Foster Care's Chief Executive, Mark Kingston, at 01452 849301.
If you want to complain to Ofsted, you should phone 0300 123 1231 or email enquiries@ofsted.gov.uk.
You can also contact ChildLine on 0800 1111 or Coram Voice (formerly Voice for the Child in Care) on 0808 800 5792.
