Having clear data on the ethnic backgrounds and experiences of those coming through the family courts helps to identify biases or disparities which in turn can guide reforms or training to ensure all groups are treated fairly and equitably, regardless of their ethnicity.

 

Claire Hargreaves, Senior Researcher at the Centre for Child and Family Justice Research hosts a conversation with colleagues Bachar Alrouh and Mariam Abouelenin about the progress that has being made nationally to collect data on the ethnicity of children and adults in the family courts. The conversation will also address some of the more critical questions that have been raised about whether statistics can in fact play a part in uncovering inequalities. Speaking directly to concerns about the contribution of statistics, Claire, Bachar and Mariam Critics consider whether the broad analytical categories favoured by statisticians, do in fact reflect the diversity of our populations.

Pauline describes the journey alongside parents to co-produce a new preventative pathway which speaks to Blackpool's ethos of "Blackpool Families Rock". The podcast illustrates the impact of the initial Born into Care statistics published in 2018 as a catalyst to change, but also the huge potential of co-production to really get close to the power and value of family experience. Amelia and Reuben, early career researchers, also talk passionately about their research work to support BBC on this journey, by uncovering promising research evidence about preventative and therapeutic interventions, as part of Blackpool's Health Determinants Research Collaboration, funded by NIHR. Amelia reminds the audience that 'behind the statistics' about Blackpool - is a town of great people.
