Child death reviews
Child death review arrangements were managed locally in Bexley until September 2019. In line with revised statutory guidance, these arrangements have been re-located to Lewisham as part of a tri-borough arrangement for Bexley, Greenwich and Lewisham.
Bexley Child Death Overview Panel (CDOP) is now part of this tri-borough arrangement.
The link to the statutory guidance is here:
