Trafford Children and Young People's Strategy Launched

Trafford Children's Trust Partnership has formally launched the borough's Children and Young People's Strategy, its vision for shaping services for children and young people in Trafford over the next three years. The strategy originally referred to as the Children and Young People's Plan, has been in development since April 2010 and has undergone a rigorous process of consultation and refinement.

The strategy highlights four key themes for improving outcomes and the future of children and young people in Trafford, these are:

- Health and wellbeing;
- Closing the gap for vulnerable groups;
- Closing the gap for localities;
- Achieving in adulthood.

Through these themes, and the priorities identified within them, the Children's Trust Partnership hopes to achieve its vision of making Trafford a place "where all children and young people feel and are safe from harm, are healthy and are receiving an outstanding education, preparing them for adult life."

The strategy is intended as a "living document" and will be continually reviewed against the needs of children and young people and their families in the borough.

Delivery of the strategy will be led by a number of dedicated professional partnerships for each of the four key themes. This delivery framework is still undergoing the final stages of development and further details will be added to the CYPS website in due course.
