Consultation responses and briefings
Responding to Government proposals forms an important part of the work of The Children's Society. By engaging with government departments and other leading bodies in their consultation processes we have an opportunity to inform the development of policies and practices that will affect the lives of children and young people.
The Children's Society is committed to including the voices of children and young people in our consultation responses to Government and whenever possible we actively seek to canvass the young people we work with in order to allow their views to be heard. On this page you will find our most recent consultation responses.
