Children and Young People's Trust Warrington
Children and Young People’s Trust Warrington
The Children and Young People’s Trust for Warrington, was established on 1 April 2008. The purpose of the Trust is to ensure that:
‘… every child and young person has the opportunity to reach their potential. That means providing opportunities for all, with co-ordinated, responsive and preventative services for those who might otherwise miss those opportunities’.
The trust brings together senior representatives from all organisations that provide services for children, young people and families to make joint decisions about how services should be designed and delivered. Terms of Reference have been set for the operation of the board that will oversee this work.
The Children and Young People’s Trust is a thematic group of the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) for Warrington.
The Children and Young People's Strategic Partnership (CYPSP) did a lot of preparatory work during 2006-08 to make sure that the new trust has the right structures and membership to meet the demands it faces. The CYPSP finished its work in March 2008, and has disbanded.
The Trust will continue the work of the partnership and develop it further. Children and Young People’s Trust board members have been recruited from all key organisations, including the voluntary and community sector.
The structure of the trust reflects the ‘Every Child Matters’ priority outcomes for children and young people. The trust will draw on the expertise and commitment of many people who work to support children and families through:
To support inter-agency working, the trust has also set up a Common processes group that will address obstacles that hinder closer working between services.
