What is Child Friendly Redbridge?

Redbridge Council is taking part in Child Friendly Cities & Communities - a UNICEF UK programme that works with councils across the UK to help them put children’s rights into practice. The programme aims to create cities and communities in the UK where all children – whether they are living in care, using a children’s centre, or simply visiting their local library – have a meaningful say in, and truly benefit from, the local decisions, services and spaces that shape their lives

What does this mean for Redbridge?

Redbridge Council is proud to be part of the UNICEF UK Child Friendly Cities & Communities programme. This programme is part of a global UNICEF initiative to give children and young people their rights. We aim to put the voice of those aged 25 and below at the heart of local decision making by developing a child's rights-based approach; we want children and young people in Redbridge to feel safe, heard, cared for and able to flourish.
