Abstract: After identifying a gap in social work practice in the UK, the authors developed and piloted a practice method for use by social workers in assessing parental capacity to change where there are serious concerns about the wellbeing of a child. The purpose of this paper is to present the results from the pilot evaluation of the C-Change approach to assessing parental capacity to change.
