Getting an independent visitor

An Independent Visitor is an adult who volunteers to spend some free time regularly with a child or young person like you, making friends with them and encouraging them with their interests.

They will usually visit about three times a month, mostly in the evening, although some will visit during the day or at the weekend.

They can even go to a review or meeting with you if you want.

You can have a visitor if you are being looked after by Children's Services and don't have much regular contact with your parents.

If you would like an Independent Visitor speak to your social worker.
