Social Worker Meeting

On Tuesday our Social Worker and the Local Authority Team Leader came to visit. The Team Leader had a couple of concerns regarding our amended homestudy report, and wanted to clarify things with us. Of course as soon as I'd heard this I started to worry and panic!! I cleaned and tidied the house, I'm relaxing a bit as I only did downstairs lol, which is my usual method of stopping myself worrying about upcoming meetings!! The meeting went fine!! It was a doddle!! We repeated things we had told Team Leader on the phone and that was it!! I can't believe they scheduled a meeting for that!!!! We discussed the fact that the Local Authority had been advised that updated references should be sought, and Team Leader said a phone call from our Social Worker to each of our referees should be fine :-)

Our Social Worker has since emailed me to let me know that the amended report was in the post on its way back to our Local Authority! Already!!! As soon as she receives the original references from the Local Authority in the post, she will ring our referees and get that sorted out. She says everything is coming together nicely and looking positive for Panel :-) Wow!! I even feel a little smidgen of confidence about this :-)
