What does 10,000 children even look like? Well, it’s 385 school classes of children or 143 double-decker buses filled with children.

Imagine yourself listening to every single one of those children as they tell you something important about themselves. How informed, how privileged would you feel to hear 10,000 different children’s voices, allowing you into their worlds? Hearing what makes them happy, how they are feeling, how safe they are, how they feel about school and what makes them tick. All of those unique pieces of information help you understand children and young people’s lived experience. 

This is exactly what a leading provider CareTech has done. Using Mind Of My Own apps, children and young people in their care and schools have shared their thoughts and feelings 10,000 times and the staff have been there ready to hear and act upon those voices.
