The Children & Young Peoples Services Forum is thematic and particularly aims at supporting organisations that work with, deliver or support children, young people and their families. It provides infrastructure support, information and opportunities to all Voluntary Community and Faith Sector organisations that deliver children’s services from 0-19yrs or 25years if they have additional or special needs.
The Forum currently has 350 members from varying organisations across the city. It also has a coordinating group of 35 key organisations consisting of the elected representatives and additional organisations that meet on a six weekly basis and find this group of benefit to attend. The coordinating group meets to address current initiatives and also to provide a mechanism to feedback the sectors thoughts, views and to feedback on current initiatives. The next coordinating group meeting will be held on:
Tuesday 27th April 2010 at 9.30am - 12.30pm
The venue for the Forum is re'new, Mabgate Mills |
The coordinating group is open to all of the wider forum members and welcomes the views from the smaller voluntary organisations it represents. It facilitates three key methods to engage with the Voluntary, Community and Faith Sector; Communication, Representation and Consultation
The forum encourages networking and partnership working across the children and young peoples services sector. A fortnightly bulletin containing up to date information about Children’s Services is circulated to all forum members.
