About the book

Special guardianship was introduced in early 2006 as a new permanence option for children for whom adoption was not considered feasible or desirable. This study describes these new provisions and provides a critical assessment of the implementation of special guardianship in eight local authority areas. It describes how it is being used through an analysis of the characteristics, circumstances and motivations of those applying for special guardianship and that of the children concerned.
