The UK government has unveiled a £500 million fund aimed at supporting vulnerable children through expanded social care and early intervention services.

Officials say the investment will focus on prevention, family support, and keeping children safely at home where possible, as part of broader efforts to reform the country's child welfare system and reduce the number of children in care.
