  1. Southwark council updates 1. Children and Young People's Plan Following from the previous update, the consultation period has now finished and we are moving into the 'Making sense of it all' period.  This will take place over the coming months with some initial priorities, which will be out to consultation, identified in April-May. Just to reiterate a huge thank you to all of the services that supported the consultation. The insight was fantastic and it has provided a solid foundation for the future plan.

  2. 2. Southwark Safeguarding Children's Board In line with national legislation change there is a local reviewof the work and governance of the board locally. This includes consideration as to how we increase the representation of faith and community groups on the board.  This follows a successful recruitment of lay members to the board last year.
