Consultancy

Through our work we:

• Train the sector workforce so it is best equipped to support children
• Give practitioners, parents and children a voice in shaping the future of childhood in Scotland
• Influence policymakers so policy and legislation better reflects children’s priorities, and
• Channel the unique perspectives of children into all our activities.

Our knowledge and experience across the range of children’s services and through our connections and network has allowed us to develop a strong consultancy offer over many years.

We have considerable experience in delivering high quality consultancy services to local authorities, national bodies, and other organisations.

Some examples of how we might help you include:

• Consulting with children and young people to design services
  We have an excellent track record in engaging with children and young people so their voices help shape the design of services that affect them.
