C (Revocation of Care Order) [2014] EWFC B55 (30 April 2014)

There has been no material change of circumstances since the original care order. C's welfare, wishes, and feelings are best served by remaining with her foster carers. Mrs. G's arguments have been previously considered and rejected. The evidence does not support revocation of the care order or making a residence order in her favour.
