VCS Children & Young People's Forum

Who we are

Lewisham VCS Children and Young People's Forum is a network of over 500 voluntary and community organisations working with children and young people in Lewisham. Our Forum enables us to support and develop ourselves as a sector and forge strong partnerships with statutory agencies.

We have quarterly meetings, and organise additional support events and consultations. We elect VCS representatives to boards and working groups across Lewisham's Children and Young People's Strategic Partnership.
