A thirty-year prospective study of children in residential care in the 1970s

In this paper, we examine the 30-year outcomes of a random one percent sample of children residing in care homes in 1971 in a prospective study based on linked census and vital event data (deaths and live births) and we compare these outcomes with children not in care at that time.
