Durham County Council require a CQC or Ofsted registered children's home for a 15 year old male, CO.

It is evidenced that with a consistent approach that CO is able to reduce these behaviours over time.

CO has had a complex time in care and within his family and this shapes his approach to building relationships. That being said he can build really positive relationships with professionals and engages really well on visits. He enjoys riding his bike, outdoor activities and walks and has a caring side. He has a good sense of humour and responds to gentle challenge with good humour.
