BE HEARD

Our aim

Child Friendly Warwickshire aims to make Warwickshire a county where children and young people are heard. We want to make sure you have your views heard and help shape the future of Warwickshire. Child Friendly Warwickshire would like all children and young people in the county to:

  • have a good understanding of the different ways they can share their views and ideas.
  • know how to influence change within their community.
  • have access to support to build their skills and confidence to allow them to have a voice and influence change.
