Northamptonshire: New children's home to cut out-of-area placements

Northamptonshire: New children's home to cut out-of-area placements A new children's home is being set up to help a troubled local authority look after more youngsters.

Northamptonshire County Council's children's services department was judged inadequate by Ofsted last month.

Now it is proposing to spend £151,000 on a property it owns in the centre of Wellingborough and use it as a home for four children with complex needs.

The aim is to reduce the number of children sent out of the county. BBC Northampton
