Children, especially those with care experience, need extra support to navigate online life safely. Digital content plays a significant role in their learning, play, and social interactions, offering both benefits and risks, such as addiction to gaming, social media, or excessive screen time. Promoting moderation, rather than restriction, and teaching resilience is key to positive online engagement. This session will explore the impact of content addiction and suggest strategies to help children and young people develop healthy screen habits.

CoramBAAF is excited to publish the new Kinship Care Assessment (Form K) Wales. The change in name to 'Form K' reflects the national policy reform agenda and a growing awareness of the complexity and importance of kinship care when children can’t remain at home with their parents. The new assessment amplifies the voice of the child and focuses on the relationship between them and the prospective kinship carer, drawing out strengths and highlighting support needs. It enables a relationship-based and reflective assessment process that gathers and analyses the information required to inform decisions about a child’s future care.
