WEST MIDLANDS CHILDREN'S SERVICES
A message from our Chair Helen Riley
I’m really honoured to be taking over as chair of the West Midlands DCS network and look forward to building on the solid foundations we have already laid.
I feel that we work together really well as a group, and while I may be taking over as chair, I very much view this role as one of collaboration and teamwork. We’ve all put in a lot of time and effort to identify our plans and priorities, now we need to focus on delivering them.
