VCS
representatives on Children’s Trusts and other key VCS stakeholders
from localities are meeting together in the four sub-regions to
again share practice and learning.
Black and Minority Ethnic VCS
Working with the Regional Forum and BME panel, work is ongoing to
identify the issues relevant for the BME VCS in relation to the
children’s and youth agenda.
Additional support
As in other regions,
focused support is going to three areas, where Local Authorities
will complete a Self Evaluation Tool (SET) to establish how
effective their engagement with the VCS is, in order to develop an
action plan for development. The areas involved are:
- Calderdale
- Wakefield
- North Yorkshire
