Disability & Physical Health

“A child or young person who is disabled is a 'Child in Need' (Children Act 1989 (s17 (10)) and may be vulnerable, because without the input of identified services, a disabled child is unlikely to reach or maintain a satisfactory level of health or development”.  However, every child may not require local authority support.
