Gloucestershire County Council (24 015 507)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Residential care 07-May-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about her brother, Mr Y’s, care and treatment by Gloucestershire County Council, Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust and Minchinhampton Surgery. A significant amount of time has passed since some of the events complained about occurred which impacts on our ability to consider them now. We are unlikely to find fault on some points. Finally, further investigation by the Ombudsmen is unlikely to achieve the changes to Mr Y’s care that Miss X is hoping for.

Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 07-May-2025
Summary: Mrs Z, on behalf of Mrs X, complained the Council delaying completing a care needs assessment, delayed completing a financial assessment and failed to effectively communicate. The Council accepts fault and has proposed a remedy which includes correctly applying a disregard and making a symbolic payment for the frustration and distress caused. This is a suitable remedy and so we will discontinue the investigation.

Kent County Council (24 004 981)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 07-May-2025
Summary: Ms X complained there were failings in the way the Council dealt with her son Y’s Education, Health and Care Plan and provided him with support. Based on current evidence we found fault by the Council as it failed to carry out annual reviews of Y’s Education Health and Care Plan and responded to Ms X’s complaints about the matter in a timely way causing uncertainty and distress. We have recommended a suitable remedy for the injustice caused so have completed our investigation.

Hampshire County Council (24 005 411)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 07-May-2025
Summary: Miss X complained the Council delayed issuing an education, health and care plan for her child, failed to provide sufficient alternative education, gave her misinformation about a placement, and communicated poorly with her. Miss X said this caused distress, meant she had to leave her job, and her child missed out on education. We find the Council at fault and this caused injustice. The Council will apologise and make a further payment to remedy the injustice.

London Borough of Southwark (24 017 668)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 07-May-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the process the Council followed when designating his locality as part of a conservation area. Investigation by us could not add to the Council’s previous investigation of the matter. There is insufficient significant personal injustice caused to Mr X to warrant us investigating. We also cannot achieve the outcome he wants.
