A charity says vulnerable parents are not being given a chance to keep their children out of care.

However she said "the clock is always ticking" for parents, who soon felt the odds were stacked against them.

She said it had "both highlighted and increased many of the inequalities they experienced pre-pandemic", such as healthcare and social isolation. The Welsh government said reducing the number of children in care was a priority, but the numbers of parents with learning disabilities is not recorded by social services departments across Wales, or centrally.

"My ex is a heavy drinker, is violent and has been to prison, yet he is allowed contact with our child four days a week from Monday to Thursday.Another said: "I had an assessment over five hours in a room at the library."This made me really nervous as I was afraid of doing something wrong, and then I would be judged, even though it wasn't a natural situation.

"Even with the right support, the clock is always ticking as the 26-week timescale for care proceedings is rigidly adhered to."Guidance for social workers in England was first published back in 2007 and updated in 2016, while Scotland has had guidance since 2009, updated in 2015.
