Ep. 56 Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children with Jo and Gina
In this edition, Ela and Ed sit down with Joanne Hindley (Jo) and Georgina Kerwick-Chrisp (Gina) from the Children in Care Team at Lincolnshire County Council.
Jo and Gina work closely with unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, and they speak with warmth and honesty about the challenges these young people face - from their harrowing journeys to the trauma they carry, and the complex process of age assessment.
Jo and Gina also share the deep rewards of their work - the joy of building trust, the privilege of walking alongside these young people, and some truly inspiring stories of hope, resilience, and transformation.
It's all about people!
