Before commencing the business on the agenda, the Chair advised that this would be the last meeting for Pat Dixon, the Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO), who is retiring at the end of the month. Members noted that Pat had been with the City of London Corporation for 15 years and was key to the Department’s recent Outstanding Judgement in 2020 and a successful Focus Visit in 2022. Pat has undertaken a number of senior roles; i.e. - Head of Children’s Social Care and Head of Safeguarding and Quality Assurance, Local Authority Designated Officer and Principal Social Worker. Pat has supported our children in care and care leavers through her management of the Reviewing and Participation Service. The Sub Committee thanked Pat for her hard work and commitment and welcomed Laura Demetriades, who would be taking over as LADO. |
