Our Youth Participation Strategy for Devon is out now!

This strategy sets out what meaningful participation is, whose responsibility it is, and how we will know that we’re getting it right. While this document is mostly for children’s services staff, we have made it as fun and straightforward as a strategy can be, so that hopefully young people will enjoy reading it too!

This strategy has been co-designed by some of our amazing young people, and we want to thank everyone who had their say on it!

“Being listened to and being an important part of decisions will help to improve our lives and will help to give us all equal opportunities in Devon no matter who we are or where we live.”

“We are pleased that this strategy has been created so that we can all work together better.”
