Just as any parent would want their child to live in a safe area so too will a corporate parent who places children in a children’s home. Recent public and media attention has focused on the physical environments of children’s homes. However, it is not always straightforward to define a ‘safe’ area. Whether a location is safe can change rapidly, and may depend on the vulnerabilities of particular children. Indeed some individual children may themselves heighten risks in an area if they have particularly risky behaviours. A home may be located in an area with some local risks, and still be ‘safe’, if these are managed well, arrangements are made to keep children safe, and placement decisions take account of these risks. Consideration of risks in a local area, and what steps should be taken to mitigate these, should be part of the care planning and placement decision process. Placing social workers should be responsible for assessing local risks and making judgments about safe locations before placing the child. The availability of support and services in the local area (e.g. education, health, CAMHS), as well as risk factors, should be considered before the placement is made. There has been in the past a lack of clarity about who must take responsibility for ensuring children’s homes are located safely – including the roles of placing LAs, host LAs, LSCBs and providers themselves. 3 Owner: Mike Worthington Version: 1.0 Author: Diane Worthington Enabling Children and Young People with Complex Needs Achieve their Full Potential Role of the provider Better equipping children’s home staff to make judgments about local risks, manage challenging behaviour, and keep children safe is an important element. Workforce training, support and knowledge is therefore critical to the success. It is acknowledged that there are limitations of mapping in capturing a ‘dynamic picture’ but considers that such mapping could play a useful part in the wider assessments of risk. The home’s location assessment should be kept under review and amended to take into account any new risks as these are identified. The annual update will need to be proportionate and will not usually need to be carried out at the level of the initial assessment. Ofsted inspectors may take into account the quality of an existing home’s manager’s location assessment when evaluating the effectiveness of the home’s approach to safeguarding and promoting children’s welfare. It will be essential to talk with children in the home’s care about the quality of life in the area to establish whether they feel safe and how to manage any risks they identify. Children will also be able to offer homes’ managers valuable insights about the quality of local services. The Children’s Homes and Looked after Children (Miscellaneous Amendments) (England) Regulations 2013 introduced the following changes to the Children’s Homes Regulations 2001 and the Registration Regulations: Regulation 31(1A) and (1B) of the Children’s Homes Regulations 2001 as amended introduced a requirement in January 2014 for providers or managers to: ensure that premises used for the purposes of a children’s home are appropriately and suitably located so that children cared for by the home are: (a) effectively safeguarded, and (b) able to access services to meet the needs identified in their care or placement plans; review the appropriateness and suitability of the location of the premises at least once in every calendar year. Location assessments will need to address two issues: 4 Owner: Mike Worthington Version: 1.0 Author: Diane Worthington Enabling Children and Young People with Complex Needs Achieve their Full Potential 1. Safeguarding concerns 2. Accessibility of local services It is important for the manager or a potential new provider to have a broad understanding of the characteristics of the area where a home is or may be located. Looked-after children placed in deprived areas, perhaps far away from the authority responsible for their care, may face disadvantage and lack opportunities to enjoy and achieve in these communities. The considerations a home manager will need to take into account, as they carry out a location assessment, may include: • whether the location of the home influences the potential for an already vulnerable child to be a victim of crime, such as being targeted for sexual exploitation; • whether there is a likelihood of children placed in the home becoming drawn into gang crime or anti-social behaviour in the local area; • the suitability of the local neighbourhood as a location to care for children who may have already been victims of abuse and neglect; and • whether there are environmental factors that would represent a hazard to children, such as locations near level crossings or busy roads. Location assessments should also take into account any positive features in a local community that would offer benefits to children living in a children’s home. For example, assessments could include evidence about opportunities for children to participate in leisure, sporting or cultural activities, or links with services that could support the child’s ethnic or religious identity. Accessibility of local services Church Road is located in Denaby Main in the west of Doncaster. Doncaster is a large and historic, busy market town in the county of South Yorkshire; it is 20 miles from Sheffield; 27 miles from Leeds; 45 miles from Manchester; with a population of approx. 77,000 in the town and 303,000 in the Borough of Doncaster.

  • Settlement Profiles
    Settlement Profiles Local Plan Evidence Base www.doncaster.gov.uk Doncaster Settlement Profiles 1.1. As part of the emerging Local Plan, a Settlement Audit was undertaken in 2014 to better understand the service provision across the borough, which in turn helped to determine the Local Plan Settlement Hierarchy. This process is dealt with at length in both the Settlement Audit and the Settlement Background Paper. 1.2. However, some consultation responses to the Settlement Audit and the Homes and Settlements consultation intimated that the Settlement Audit could be further expanded on and clarified. 1.3. As such, the following profiles have been developed which seeks to provide portraits of each defined settlement within the borough (the Main Urban Area; 7 Main Towns; 10 Service Towns and Villages; and 12 Defined Villages). 1.4. Each portrait will expand on the results of the Settlement Audit, and will provide ‘profiles’ for each settlement, dealing with social, economic and environmental matters, as per the Settlement Audit. 1.5. Occasionally, some scores or information published in the Settlement Audit Update (2017) have been amended. These amendments and the rationale are presented overleaf in Table A. 1.6. Information about the Settlement Hierarchy and allocations within each settlement are provided in the Settlement Background Paper and Site Selection Methodology. For convenience, a number of abridged settlement profiles have also been provided in the Settlement Housing Summaries. 1 Settlement Amendment Rationale Change to Scores?

Conisbrough Train Station From the train station head up the road towards Conisbrough. Turn left onto Doncaster Road and immediately left again to follow the footpath between the modern houses and the railway track. The name Conisbrough is derived from the Anglo-Saxon Cyningesburh, “the defended burh of the King” suggesting that the area belonged to an Anglo-Saxon king before the Norman Conquest. Archaeological remains suggest that there has been a settlement in the Wellgate area since at least the 2nd or 3rd century AD.

  • HS2 Ltd Have Advised the Department That, Should the Government Decide to Adopt This Route, the Entire Shimmer Development Should Be Within the Safeguarded Area
    New HS2 plans for South Yorkshire Frequently Asked Questions Why can’t you move the alignment to avoid the Shimmer housing development? The design requirements of a high speed railway restrict what can be achieved in alignment and curvature. A change in one location can have implications for many kilometres at either side of that point. There are a number of considerations in this area including the residential areas of Mexborough, Denaby Main and Conisbrough as well as the new housing estates in Mexborough. The Dearne Valley has a number of wetlands such as Denaby Ings that have Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) status. There are also other obstacles such as a sewage treatment works. Moving the route to the east to avoid the Shimmer development would increase the impact on numerous businesses in Denaby Main industrial estate, impact the new housing estate Melton View on Pasture Lane and bring the route closer to Denaby Ings SSSI. Routes further to the east, (east of Conisbrough) would be longer crossing several SSS1’s, woodlands and flood plains. Routes to the west of Mexborough would run through the river Dearne floodplain for long distances and require tunnels to pass through the hillier ground. Should the government decide to adopt the route, the consultation proposed will allow HS2 to better understand the constraints and impacts of the route and allow the opportunity for the route to be further refined as appropriate. What happens next? The Secretary of State will set out his plans for Phase 2b of HS2 later this year, including his preferences on the location of the HS2 route and station in South Yorkshire.

  • Dearne Valley Eco-Vision Final Report.Pdf
    DEARNE VALLEY ECO-VISION “Perhaps we cannot raise the winds. But each of us can put up a sail, so that when the wind comes we can catch it.” E.F.Schumacher ‘The future of the Dearne Valley will be re-imagined by an eco-vision. The vision is of a place transformed by the know-how of its people and by the imagination and commitment of its communities and enterprises. It will be a place defined by action, in the knowledge that time is running out for the status quo. Within a decade it will be the lowest carbon community of its kind in the country. A pioneer proud to tell its story and share its experiences. Using its distinct resources, assets and potential as a foundation, the Dearne will build a lean, green economy in preparation for the challenges that lie ahead. But above all the eco-vision will rekindle the work ethic of the Dearne’s forefathers, providing a renewed sense of purpose and inspiration for the next generation.’ Published May 009 Sheffield City Region The Source 00 Meadowhall Way Sheffield S9 EA Tel: 0 6 5685 Email: [email protected] Web: www.sheffieldcityregion.org.uk The Dearne Valley eco-vision was commissioned by the Dearne Valley Special Board, one of the Sheffield City Region’s five thematic working groups. The eco-vision was produced by Nick Dodd, Jonathan Brown and John Sampson from URBED, with support from Richard Hindley, Nick Gardner and Joanne Parkin at SQW, and Jonathan Turner and Sarah Bull from DTZ. The authors wish to acknowledge the support of Joanne Wehrle from Rotherham Council, Martin Cantor from Barnsley Council and Stuart Jenkinson from the Environment Agency, as well as members of the Dearne Valley Officers Group and other key consultees (see Chapter 8 for a listing), in developing the eco-vision.
