Summary

CAFCASS (Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service) Wales Family Justice dataset.

Documentation

Cafcass (Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service) Wales Family Justice dataset.

The Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service (Cafcass) looks after the interests of children involved in family proceedings. It is independent of the courts and social services, but works under the rules of the Family Court and legislation to work with children and their families, and then advise the courts on what is considered to be in the best interests of individual children.

Useful information about the Family Courts can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/family-court-statistics-quarterly-april-to-june-2023/guide-to-family-court-statistics
