One child was missing for over a year
There have been more than 380 incidents of missing vulnerable children in council care in the past five years.
Freedom of Information data shows that the majority of missing children were reported in 2020, when 110 vanished from the council’s sights.Jo Kavanagh, assistant director for children’s services at Lincolnshire County Council, said: “Keeping vulnerable children safe is a priority for the council, including those in our care.
“In a very small number of cases, children may be missing for longer periods, and the council and Lincolnshire Police have clear mechanisms for responding to such incidents to ensure the child is found as soon as possible.” Josie Allan, a representative at the charity Missing People, said children who went missing may be being exploited or trafficked, running away from abuse or may be experiencing a mental health crisis.
