We have close and long-standing relationships with local schools, children's services and other professional and voluntary sector organisations throughout the Borough, which enables us to reach the most disadvantaged and vulnerable young people who can benefit from the support we offer. We are part of Kingston Children and Young People's Network, led by Kingston Voluntary Action. which looks at areas such as local statutory plans for children and young people, child safeguarding and best practice sharing. This provides excellent networking and partnership working opportunities with other local groups.
