Course description

In response to a growing trend, local authorities are increasingly initiating care proceedings for unaccompanied children who arrive in the UK seeking asylum. These cases come with their own unique challenges, particularly given the evolving immigration landscape.

In this concise webinar, presented by barrister Sophie Crampton, we will delve into the critical challenges that care practitioners must address in such scenarios and offer practical guidance on how to approach them effectively.

One of the primary areas of focus during the webinar will be jurisdiction. We will explore the legal scope and boundaries that apply when dealing with care proceedings for unaccompanied asylum-seeking children. Understanding the jurisdictional aspects is crucial for practitioners to navigate these cases successfully.
