LGO (Local Government & Social Care Ombudsman) Other Reference 25-018-791 Sector Adult Care Services Category Safeguarding Decided 25 June 2026

View Newcastle City Council scorecard

Summary

We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about how the Council considered safeguarding concerns about her child, shortly before their death. The complaint is late and there are no good reasons for us to exercise discretion to consider it now. In any case, it is unlikely that we could add anything meaningful to the coroner’s court investigation and so there would be no worthwhile outcome achievable by our involvement.
