Bolton Council has been ordered to pay cash to a mum who claimed she took an overdose after an ‘angry’ social worker ‘made negative comments about her parenting’.
The Local Government Ombudsman has published details of an investigation into complaints made against the council by a woman, referred to in its report as Ms X.
Ms X complained that Bolton Council failed to support her when she was having difficulty managing her teenage daughter’s challenging behaviours and says she felt forced to agree for her to be placed in care.
