Scottish Journal of Residential Child Care Vol 13 No 2
This issue features a debate on the implications of YES or NO votes in the Referendum on Scottish Independence in September 2014 for children supported by the care system.
We also have our usual mix of peer-reviewed articles and commentaries. Highlights include bridging the divide between education and social work, a pilot study to improve young people's mental and physical wellness through fitness and nutrition, and young people's perception of home.
