London Borough of Hackney (25 014 346)
Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 19-Jul-2026
Summary: The Council was at fault in delaying in allocating a social worker for Mr X. This caused a delay in the Council’s reassessment of Mr X’s eligible care needs, and the assessment of his family members’ support needs. The Council also delayed in finding a supported living placement for Mr X, in arranging increased day centre provision for him in the interim, and in considering whether Mr X’s mother could be employed as his personal assistant. To remedy the injustice caused, the Council will apologise and make payments to the people affected. It will also explain how it has implemented the recommendation of a safeguarding enquiry into Mr X’s care.
