Harriet Waldegrave

The Office of the Children’s Commission is a statutory body responsible for promoting and protecting the rights of children as set out in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The office has a particular focus on the most vulnerable children – those who are living away from their families in care, mental health institutions, or youth offending settings and those children who have a social worker.

Harriet has worked in children’s policy for think tanks and charities, and also spent two years working as a child protection social worker.
