Launch of Practice Spotlight
In May London Children’s Services officially launched and celebrated Practice Spotlight at the Association of London Directors of Children’s Services (ALDCS) London Children’s Services Summit 2025. It was an inspiring day that welcomed over 200 delegates from across each of London’s 33 Local Authorities, police and health partners, government and regulators all joining in the recognition and celebrations of your practice that is making a difference to the lives and outcomes of children, young people and families in London.
Practice Spotlight shines a light on London Children’s Services most innovative and impactive practice that is transforming the lives of children and families. It is this motivation that binds us together and cements our connection to one another and the children, young people and families we serve.
The event, with Practice Spotlight at its centre, was symbolic of the culture of collaboration that has become commonplace in London.
Practice Spotlight Digital Resource Area
We are also delighted to launch of London Children’s Services Practice Spotlight Digital Resource Area!
This is a very special resource that houses all the examples of practice shared and allows stakeholders and partners to directly engage with the many examples of practice and those leading the work.
