Direct Award - Living Library of videos for Permanence Planning Web Based Tool

Description

The contract will allow for professionally produced lived‑experience videos to be created by Brickwall Films Ltd; this will help social workers understand how permanence decisions shape individuals’ lives over time. A core aim of the project is to promote more consistent practice across Local Authorities, ensuring that decision‑making remains aligned with each child’s long‑term needs relating to identity, contact, stability, and wellbeing. The tool will be freely accessible for children’s service teams to support both training and planning activities. The plan is to increase awareness of the lifelong impact of adoption on adopted people, adopters, and birth families. ## Contract award
