Across the UK there has been a reduction in the number of referrals for child protection medicals (Local Government Association, 2020), despite increases in calls to Childline from children worried about the impact of coronavirus (National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, 2020). Children and young people need not miss school and carers will need less time off work to attend appointments previously conducted at healthcare facilities often hours away. We must endeavour to take the learning and shreds of hope gleaned over the last few months with us as we rebuild our services, to make them even better for the children and young people who will need them so desperately over the coming years. ./cache/cord-344823-jl5ph260.txt ./txt/cord-344823-jl5ph260.txt
