Vision Statement

The Vale of Glamorgan Children and Young People's Partnership will ensure that children and young people in the Vale are well informed and supported to access a broad range of quality services that enable them to take full advantage of the life opportunities available in their local communities and beyond.

The Seven Core Aims

The Children and Young People's Plan was developed using the Welsh Govenrnment's "Rights in Action".

That every child and young person: 

• Have a flying start in life
• Have a comprehensive range of education and learning opportunities
• Enjoy the best possible health and are free from abuse, victimisation and exploitation
• Have access to play, leisure, sporting and cultural activities
• Are listened to, treated with respect, and have their race and cultural identity recognised
• Have a safe home and a community which supports physical and emotional wellbeing
• Are not disadvantaged by poverty

The Fact Team is a crucial part of the Families First project as it manages the referrals, and provides a team of support workers who will complete a ‘Joint Assessment Family Framework’ (JAFF) for each referred family. This will ensure that they deliver family support through holistic multi-agency service tailored to the identified needs of individuals and the family as a whole

The Vale Family Information Service (FIS) provides a one stop shop for families and people working with families, who need information on childcare, children's activities and family support services.

Swoosh is a local website offering information, news and advice for all young people. It is supported by the Welsh Government and linked to a national website for young people called CLIC.   Visit the Swoosh website.
