The inquiry will feed into the Independent Review of Children’s Social Care, the APPG has said.

It is set to launch with an online evidence gathering session focussing on the West Midlands.

Care-experienced young people and adults, carers, professionals, and others with an interest in improving the care system are asked to attend the session to share their experiences of England’s children’s social care system.

The event will be hosted by chair of the APPG Steve McCabe MP and co-ordinated by national looked-after children and care leavers charity Become which acts as secretariat for the group.
