If you’re in care you can ask to
have an independent visitor.
This means that you can be matched up with an adult with similar
interests and hobbies to you and if you want them to they can
visit you regularly, so you can talk to them and they can give
you advice if you need it. They can come along with you to your
review meetings for support and you can go on trips and
activities with them.
The visitor you are matched with will be checked to make sure
they are safe and you can let your social worker or carer know
how things are going.
If you don’t have much contact with your own family and think
you might like to have an independent visitor, just call Wigan
Children’s Fund on 01942 404151 or email
childrensfund@wigan.gov.uk
