About this course

Foster carers may often find that they are required to attend a court. For many this is a new, and sometimes daunting, experience.

Carers are in a unique position because they have a wealth of information about a child or young person, based on direct observation. However, they may need guidance on how to make the best use of the information they have in court.

This course will help carers build greater confidence by working on practical ways of identifying and providing the most effective information for court proceedings.

A representative from the Witness Service at Glasgow Sheriff Court will contribute to this session.

This course will enable participants to:

  • develop a greater familiarity with court procedures
  • consider how carers might best collect information and prepare for court
  • provide the opportunity to practise giving evidence.
