Funding for children\u2019s services is made available through the Local Government Finance Settlement. The department is in the final year of a multi-year settlement deal worth over £200 billion in the five years to 2020.<\/p>
At the Autumn Budget 2018, the government made £410 million available to local authorities, in 2019/20, for adult and children social care. The government also announced £84 million in targeted, evidence-based interventions which will transform services to reduce demand, saving money for local authorities but most importantly, improving the quality of services for our most vulnerable children.<\/p>
The government will continue to work closely with the sector to consider long-term children\u2019s services funding as part of the upcoming 2019 Spending Review.<\/p>
