Overview of family circumstances:

Carol and Martin are both 33 years old. Carol works part-time in a local newsagent shop and cares for Martin’s mother Nellie who is 80 years old. Martin worked as a self-employed mechanic but since hurting his back over a year ago, he has not been able to work. Martin appears to have depression and is addicted to pain medication. He also drinks Whiskey as he says it helps with the pain.Financially, the family are not coping. They do receive benefits, but Martin spends a good portion of it on Whiskey. They are now living on mostly frozen foods and they have rent and Council Tax arrears.

Carol is 6 months pregnant with their third child and has been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. She is becoming increasingly tired. Terry and Shelly have a close relationship. They are both outgoing and popular at school. Recently, Terry has not been attending school every day and has been sneaking out of the house after everyone has gone to bed, returning before everyone gets up. Shelly is the only person that knows he goes out, but she doesn’t know what he is doing. Terry returns one morning and Shelly notices bruising to his face. He claims that he fell over a low wall. He eventually tells her that he is a “runner” for a local crack seller and gives Shelly £50 to keep quiet. Shelley takes the money and agrees. The police arrived at the family home yesterday morning to inform Martin and Carol that they have arrested Terry for selling drugs to an undercover police officer.
