The strategic partnership for children’s services between Hampshire CC and Isle of Wight Council could end after a decade of work between the two.

Hampshire leader Rob Humby said: ‘With the successes achieved to date, coupled with growing demand and financial pressure for children’s services in Hampshire and nationally, now feels like the right time for us to consider stepping away from the partnership, which would not only allow the Isle of Wight to continue taking forward its children’s services without the need for Hampshire’s input, but also enable the county council to focus even more closely on the needs of Hampshire children moving forward.’
