The notes from a discussion you may have with a care professional about the help and support you need to live your life the way you want. This conversation is different to a formal assessment of your needs and what you might be entitled to, and focuses on your own thoughts about what you are able to do and what help you need. A conversation record is also a way of noting the views of a child or young person and their parents/carers as part of the education, health and care assessment process.
