Herefordshire Children and Young People's Partnership Forum

Following changes nationally and Herefordshire’s own local partnership arrangements, the Children’s Trust has undergone major changes which mean the name 'Children's Trust' no longer exists, although the partnership arrangement to deliver services to and for children, young people and their families (as part of the larger Herefordshire Partnership) is still operational.

The Herefordshire Partnership is developing its approach to reflect the new localities agenda. This means there will be locality based partnerships across the locality areas of Herefordshire.

In addition, national policy changes will mean that there will be changes in local governance through the development of a Health and Wellbeing Board, and a  Safeguarding Children’s Board.  There will be revised arrangements for working in partnership with business, and with colleges and schools regarding the 14-19 agenda. 

Whilst there is a significant amount of change, the commitment to focusing on the needs of children, young people and families in Herefordshire remains as strong as ever.  Work is taking place to see how this commitment and advocacy can be best developed within the new partnership arrangements. 

A revised Children’s Trust Board - now called the Children and Young People's  Partnership Forum- will continue to meet  to develop the way forward within the new partnership arrangements, including the move to a more commissioning approach across a range of services.  The Forum will be responsible for ensuring the  new Children and Young People’s Plan – the ‘Yes We Can’ Plan is achieved.
