Hi @vickypunter1 I'm so sorry to read about your situation. Has this been done using a care order by your council and are you still able to see them at the moment?
I'd recommend getting advice from a legal professional. You might be entitled to legal aid to help with this. I've added a few links below that might be helpful.
