Child Friendly Redbridge
Redbridge is officially recognised as a UNICEF UK Child Friendly Community, a major milestone that reflects our borough’s deep commitment to putting children’s rights at the heart of local decisionmaking, services and community life. This recognition is part of UNICEF’s global Child Friendly Cities & Communities Initiative (CFCI), a worldwide programme that supports cities and local areas to embed children’s rights into everything they do.
Being a UNICEF recognised Child Friendly Borough means that:
- Children’s rights shape our policies, services and everyday practice, across the council and our partners.
- Children and young people’s voices are central to how we design places, improve services and plan for the future.
- We work collectively across sectors, from health and education to community safety and culture to create a borough that nurtures every child.
- Redbridge is part of a global movement, learning from and contributing to international best practice in children’s rights.
Together with our children, young people, families and partners, we are creating a Redbridge where every child feels heard, valued and able to thrive
