Information sharing: Expert workshops to help in Cumbria

A national expert will this week help Cumbria Children's Fund develop its work on information sharing.

Professor Hedy Cleaver from the University of London evaluated the information sharing and assessment trailblazers. She will lead two workshops designed to share experiences.

"We hope the results of work in Cumbria will feed into national developments, things like forms that are clear to everyone and processes that work well for children and families," said Jane Humphries, programme manager for Cumbria Children's Fund.

The workshops follow nine months of work in 16 pilot projects in the county, which have involved a range of agencies.

Humphries said one of the main findings so far was the need for training to enable people from agencies other than social services to work in this way.
