Every Council should have a pledge to looked after children - this is our promise to make services better! The pledge was written with help from One Voice.

You can watch the care pledge animation that one voice created on the councils website - use the link below to find it or look at:

www.gateshead.gov.uk/carepledge

We have also uploaded some photos to show you what it looked like before and after!

All of the art work from the Care Pledge animation have been framed and put up in the YPSC (where the two Looked After Social Work Teams Are)

We have designed Mouse Mats And Badges for the care pledge to give out when people have signed up! So if you see your worker wearing a blue badge with a hand on, this means that they have signed the pledge to make things better for all young people in care!

The pledge was launched on 22nd september 2010!

A big well done to everyone involved in this project!!
