@ratecafcass.bsky.socialWRONG? Fix it. If your Cafcass report contains inaccurate information about you, you have the legal right to have it corrected. Article 16 of the UK GDPR. Write to Cafcass and tell them what's wrong and what the truth is. Ratecafcass.co.uk

@ratecafcass.bsky.socialWhat Cafcass is SUPPOSED to do. Cafcass exists to represent the interests of children in family court. They interview parents. They write a report. The judge reads it. That report should contain what you said. What you said. Ratecafcass.co.uk
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialWhat did they WRITE about you? Submit a Subject Access Request. See exactly what they wrote. Then decide if it matches what you said. ratecafcass.co.uk

@ratecafcass.bsky.socialRate Cafcass exists because one parent spent fifteen years telling Cafcass their report was inaccurate. Five changes would have prevented all of it. Recording. Data accuracy. Honest complaints. User feedback. Transparency.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialIf Cafcass is confident it does a good job, why not prove it? Record every interview so facts can't be disputed. Count every complaint honestly. Ask every parent for feedback at the end of their case. Publish the results.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialA Cafcass officer writes unproven allegations into a court report. A judge relies on it. A child loses contact with a parent. The consequence? A letter to the officer's manager. Until there are consequences, nothing changes.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialWhen Cafcass interviews you, put your phone on the table and press record. That recording is your evidence. If your report is accurate, the recording proves it. If your report is inaccurate, the recording proves that too.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialBut according to reviews on Glassdoor, written by Cafcass's own staff, employees describe constant gaslighting. Managers who give criticism instead of coaching. This isn't parents against staff. This is everyone against a system that isn't working for anyone.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialWe record police interviews. We record medical consultations. But the conversation that decides whether you see your child? That's not recorded. No transcript. No audio. No way to verify what was said. Record your Cafcass interview.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialHis Honour Judge Willans described a Cafcass officer's approach as entirely inappropriate. The judge called it a systematic failure. Not one officer. The system. This isn't one parent's opinion. It's a published judgment.
@ratecafcass.bsky.socialRecord your interview. Check your report. Challenge what's wrong. Your words matter. Make sure they're the ones the judge reads.
