Local residents of Burngreave to be members of the Children and Young People’s Strategy Group.
The group oversees the development of our work with children and young people and its implementation through projects.
We have major projects covering:
• working with schools to support young people (Family Advocacy),
• community-based Study Support,
• youth work in the area (Streetworx),
• sports activities (Active Burngreave),
• and pre-school childcare and Bookstart.
We are looking for local residents who are:
• committed to helping improve the life opportunities of young people from the Burngreave area
• willing to devote some time and energy to working with others on these issues.
The Strategy group meets once every two months.
If you’re interested in improving the support to young people in the area, this is a great opportunity to have an influence over the next three years. There are two residents on the group which also has representatives from the BNDfC Partnership Board (also local residents), Statutory Agencies such as the Council, and Voluntary and Community organisations.
We also have a vacancy for a representative from voluntary and community organisations working in Burngreave (the person doesn’t have to be a resident).
If you think you would be interested in joining the Strategy Group in one of these capacities and would like more information, please contact me:
