The Promise

In 2020, the conclusions of Scotland’s Independent Care Review made aseries of recommendations on how Scotland must ensure that those with experience of care are loved, safe and respected. The Promise is that Scotland will implement these recommendations in full by 2030.

The Promise therefore set welcome ambition for Scotland to better respond to the needs of children and young people with experience of care. To deliver The Promise, the Scottish Police Authority and other Corporate Parents must aspire to make improvements for those with experience of care. These improvements will be delivered through the commitments and actions outlined in this plan.
