Community Care Lawyers Group (CCLG) Submission to the Law Commission consultation on disabled children's social care law

In November 2024, as part of our Career Pathway work, ASC launched a Practitioners Association for Legal Aid Community Care Lawyers, the 'Community Care Lawyers Group' (CCLG). As its first activity, in January 2025 members of the group collaborated to write, in CCLG's own name, a response to the Law Commission consultation on Disabled Children's Socials Care Law. They brought together their immense expertise and experience to address questions about improvements and changes which need to be made to ensure that disabled children's Access to Justice is improved and their needs met more effectively and with fewer barriers than is currently the case.
