Every year in England, nearly 400,000 children are formally recognised as being “in need” of children’s social care support (equivalent to about 1 in every 30 children) [1]. Of those, over 100,000 children are subject to Child in Need (CIN) plans [2] and many more may be at risk but fall outside formal services. Decades of reviews and case studies show that poor information sharing between agencies is a recurring contributing factor in serious harm and death of children - when professionals hold only fragments of a child’s case history, decision-making is weakened [3].
By consolidating data across health, social care and other agencies into a unified, up-to-date view, professionals can better match, verify and act on safeguarding alerts - ensuring that no child slips through the cracks just because their records live in silos.
By bringing together records from across care systems, every professional has a single, current view of a child’s safeguarding status. This enables earlier intervention, safer decisions and targeted support in the right places.
