We don't like to be stuck in a rut so we moved the board meeting from the usual venue of our office in Baker Street to a lively, noisy space near Euston. That was the disruptive start to week 2 of the team's November.

This is the first of four posts reporting on the highlights of working life for the Mind Of my Own team over a typical month.

Our apps are co-designed with young people as we believe that young people are experts by experience, they know how and what they want to talk about with the services they use.

We know that when a young person goes missing they are at increased risk of experiencing harm. In fact one in ten children who go missing experience some form of harm while they are away.

Those who know us well understand that we not only help children and young people have a say in their lives but are also driven to change practice by elevating children’s voices to improve the services they use.

Ask any social worker what they like least about their job and they will tell you 'paperwork’. How much thought do you give to what you write, or don’t write about a child in care and why does this matter so much?
