‘The circumstances in this case may sound all too familiar to some readers. A child aged ten was terrified of his mother’s violent male partner and is now living with his grandparents. The local authority (LA) had applied for an interim care order (ICO). The good news is that the child is now settled with his grandparents and it’s likely they will apply for and be granted a special guardianship order.’
