Hampshire children and young people's plan
The guiding principle of this plan is that in Hampshire each and every child really does matter. It has been written by a multi-agency team led by Hampshire County Council not only in consultation with its statutory and voluntary sector partners, but, most importantly, with children and young people themselves. The significant role played by children and young people in drawing up the plan which I believe to be so important for their future makes a reality of its title "The Children's and Young People's Plan".
I believe that by drawing up this plan together and implementing it together we shall help children and young people stay safe, be healthy, enjoy and achieve, make a positive contribution and achieve economic well-being. But I also hope that by supporting parents and carers and encouraging family-led decision-making, their childhood will be as happy and carefree as possible while at the same time enabling them to acquire the life skills so that they reach their full potential as individuals and become active citizens of tomorrow's world.
I wish to express my gratitude to everyone who has contributed to this plan and I look forward to its successful implementation.
