Children in or on the edge of care; Service User Led Participation and Co-production

Tender description

Cheshire East local authority is seeking to work in partnership with an organisation to support its journey to embed and sustain the voice of the child and participation of children and young people at the heart of all services across Cheshire East. The service aims to ensure that every opportunity is taken to capture young people’s views to help shape and influence present and future services. The Service must be able to add value to our existing children’s rights and participation service and the progress made to date. The local authority wants to work with an organisation led by people who have relevant experience and understanding of the children’s care system and who can use that experience to inspire our young people and staff and new ways of working and thinking.
