Making History…Again!

On Monday evening, two Children in Care Council (CiCC) representatives, David (Chair) and Paddy (Apprentice), made history by addressing a Full Conservative Group Meeting!

A letter was recently sent from the CiCC to the elected members asking how they will support the CiCC. In response, the CiCC were invited to hold a presentation at the group meeting to explain what they do and achieve for children in care in Medway.

David and Paddy professionally represented the CiCC with passion and pride and gave great insight to the achievements the CiCC have recently made. One elected member said, "You should be extremely proud of yourselves. You are both a great asset to your CiCC!”

The CiCC reps received a huge round of applause at the end of their presentation and reported that they look forward to working with the Conservative group.

“My colleagues, the Conservative Group, were taken back by the professionalism and passion shown by the Children in Care Council representatives. We as a group look forward to future opportunities where we can work in concert with them and do our utmost as corporate parents” Cllr Mike O’Brien
