Why?

Through the Bright Spots surveys nearly 550 children in care and care leavers have shared how they feel they are doing and what influences their wellbeing.
GPs and health services are a key support and the Sheffield care leavers’ union
wanted to raise the profile of children’s experiences and start thinking about ways to improve things – so they created some questions to get everyone talking.

Impact

The first #bigGPconvo was a success – Sheffield Care Leavers’ Union spoke online to over 500 local GPs and health service colleagues. They have plans to share their message further and have even bigger conversations to raise awareness – they are excited to have secured a session at a Yorkshire and Humber regional conference for those working in health.
