Together for Childhood in Stoke

Episode 18,   Oct 14, 2019, 08:24 AM

In one of our first episodes, we invited Jon Brown to give us an overview of our Together for Childhood initiative – a project which addresses how agencies and organisation work together to prevent child abuse and support children and their families.

This week we visited one of the four sites delivering Together for Childhood – a ten-year programme by the NSPCC that focuses on preventing child abuse.

In this episode, we speak to Leila Canay, one of Stoke’s Children Services Practitioners about: 

  • what evaluation activities are currently being run in Stoke 
  • how the initiative has invited change and developed over time working with the community and partners
  • establishing professional and community partnerships, including embracing collaboration and co-creation
  • how young people can be involved in influencing and informing Together for Childhood in their local area. 

This episode features: 
 
  • Host – Ali Brown, the NSPCC’s Knowledge Transfer Manager
  • Leila Canay, Children’s Services Practitioner at the NSPCC’s Stoke Service Centre/Community Engagement Officer for Together for Childhood in Stoke
