£5.6 million project aims to reunite Rotherham families
By Gareth Dennison, 10th August 2018
A £5.6 million project to get looked after children back with their families has won approval from the council.
The five-year scheme — called MST-Fit — has seen a 75 per cent success rate in Leeds.
Rotherham Borough Council’s children’s department is forecasting a £9.5 million overspend this year, mainly because of the spiralling numbers of children in care.
MST-Fit works with youngsters aged 11 to 15, helping with behaviour management, new skills and learning to live with family again.
