More than 570 children looked after and care experienced young people from across Somerset have been recognised at Somerset Council’s annual Celebrating Care and Achievement event. The event was hosted by members of Somerset’s in Care Council (SiCC) and Somerset’s Leaving Care Council (SLCC), alongside Somerset Council’s Engagement and Participation Team, who helped plan and deliver the day. Organisers thanked the many people and organisations who supported the event through planning, volunteering, sponsorship and nominations, helping to create a memorable celebration for Somerset’s children looked after and care experienced young people. It is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the achievements, talents and resilience of Somerset’s children looked after and care experienced young people.
