Corporate parents

How Staffordshire County Council, as your corporate parent, will help you 

Last updated: 28th September

We will: 

  • Support you with your physical and mental wellbeing
  • Find creative ways for you to express yourself 
  • Encourage and support you in your education 
  • Learn from each other
  • Celebrate your successes
  • Make sure you have a good place to live
  • Support you to live independently

Corporate parents are people who want the best for you. They want you to be healthy and happy. They want you to do well at school and enjoy making friends. And when you become an adult, they want you to be independent enough to have a good job and safe home. 

From the moment you came into care, Staffordshire County Council became your corporate parent. This means you now have thousands of people on your side, rooting for you to succeed.

We have a duty of care for children and young people. We work alongside our partners, including health services, the police, education and housing, to share this responsibility.
