On the 27^th April 2009 the Cabinet agreed new governance arrangements for the Children’s Trust Arrangements.  
In summary, the Children and Young People’s Partnership Board has been replaced by;

• A Children’s Trust Board – Providing the strategic overview and direction for integrated children and young people’s services. Alongside further development of partnership working around children and young people the Board will carry out the statutory functions of a Children’s Trust.

• A Children and Young People Stakeholders Forum – this forum will provide a platform for consultation and information sharing on Children and Young People issues.

The meeting dates and membership of the Children’s Trust Board and the CYP Stakeholders forum are currently being finalised.

Hackney Children and Young People's Strategic Plan

This was published in June 2008 and sets out our commitment to improving outcomes for children and young people in Hackney.

One year into the delivery of the Plan, we have reviewed it to measure progress against the priorities, take account of new circumstances and maintain the momentum of change.

Both the Plan and review can be downloaded below.

The Team Hackney Adviser for the Children and Young People Partnership is Natalie Allen who can be reached on 020 8356 2167, natalie.allen@hackney.gov.uk for more information.
