Cafcass - Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service

Just sharing some of the work I do for Cafcass. I illustrate situations and ideas that help the organisation communicate with children, young people and their parents/carers, and my drawings also help Cafcass gather feedback so that the people they work with are treated respectfully and are really listened to.

I also work as a live scribe to help Cafcass managers communicate more clearly with their staff, and promote better ways of working. Please click on the images and they will enlarge.

Slowly things are starting to change and the ripple effects will hopefully mean better outcomes for children and young people after their parents split up. 







I created these Practice Framework images - this is used to promote and share good practice and was specifically designed with children and young people in mind, in order to make it accessible to all:


I designed the Together logo. The concept of the Together Framework was created in order to promote the values that the organisation holds dear, and the champions within Cafcass try to share and promote the framework.

Some strategic leadership images, again used to promote best practice:




 

Telling stories in collaboration

Just sharing some projects I've drawn this year where the client helped speed up the drawing process hugely, by sketching out what they wanted. That left me more time to respond using drawings because the brief was very clear.

This first one was for a public consultation on a new public space in Wandsworth, this was to tell the story of the project and next steps:

This was a Theory of Change explainer for a consultation between Living Roots and Ealing Council:

And this poster was for Merton Centre for Independent Living, to share their plans for the coming years:
