Childrens Social Services
Dear Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council,
I have been tasked with updating our records within Children & Families Social work teams for Blackburn Council.
Please can you provide me with an up to date list of Social work teams within Children & Families eg Service Managers, Commissioning Managers, Team Managers, Safeguarding Managers, LAC Managers, etc., within all geographical areas of Blackburn with Darwen council.
I have tried to find this information on your website but have been unsuccessful.
Many thanks
Yours faithfully,
S Manning
