Birmingham City Council’s pledge

Birmingham City Council is the corporate parent for children in care. This means that we’re responsible for making sure they have the best possible care, that they’re safe and have the opportunities to thrive in the same way that a good parent would.

Alongside Birmingham Children's Trust, and all our partners in the NHS, the Police, in schools and colleges, and in the business community of Birmingham we work together through our city pledge, to give our children in care and care leavers the best opportunities and support.
