Empowering Parents: Our New Acronym Booklet for Navigating Social Care


As parents and carers, we all want the best for our children. However, when working alongside social care professionals, the use of unfamiliar acronyms can sometimes feel overwhelming. Understanding key terminology is crucial in ensuring that you, as a parental figure, feel confident and informed when advocating for your child.

To support you on this journey, we are excited to introduce our Acronym Booklet, designed specifically to empower parents, carers, and guardians. This easy-to-use resource provides clear explanations of the most commonly used acronyms within social care, education, and family support services. Whether you're attending a meeting, reading a report, or simply seeking clarity, our booklet will serve as a helpful guide.


We believe that knowledge is power, and by breaking down professional jargon into accessible language, we hope to foster stronger communication and collaboration between families and social care professionals. Every parental figure deserves to feel confident and informed when making decisions about their child's wellbeing.


Our Acronym Booklet is now available, to download below and we encourage all parents, carers, and guardians to make use of this valuable tool. Together, we can ensure that every family has the support and understanding they need.
