Shropshire

Shropshire Children’s Trust

Shropshire Children’s Trust is a strategic partnership of agencies responsible for services for children and young people. By working together, and with children, young people and families, the Children’s Trust sets strategic direction, identifies priorities, monitors progress, and identifies or pools budgets to meet needs to improve outcomes for children and young people.

It leads on implementation of our agreed vision: 'In Shropshire, all children and young people matter. We will work together and in partnership with families and carers to give every child and young person the best opportunities today and for the future.'

Voluntary and Community Sector Forum

Shropshire Children's Trust in partnership with local voluntary and community organisations have developed the 'VCS Summit'.

This forum has been established to improve opportunities for all non-for-profit organisations (including charities, voluntary and community organisations) that provide services for children, young people and their families to participate in the working of Shropshire Children's Trust.

The Summit meetings provide:

  • Information and presentations on Shropshire Children's Trust activities.
  • Networking opportunities and information exchange for voluntary and community organisations.
  • Elections for representatives to sit on Shropshire Children's Trust and its sub-groups.

For further information to join the Summit membership, contact Jade Brooks at jade.brooks@shropshire-cc.gov.uk.

VCS involvement in Children's Trusts

The attached document brings together evaluation and development work carried out in Worcestershire, Stoke on Trent and Birmingham around voluntary and community sector involvement in Children's Trusts in winter/spring 2008. The work was funded through the VCS Engage programme and based upon the Self Evaluation Template for local authorities developed by VCS Engage. It was carried out in partnership with Worcestershire CVYS, VCS Matters and Stoke Children's Fund and coordinated by G:up with the support of Government Office West Midlands.
