Redbridge Council's Children and Young People Committee has set its priorities for the 2026-27 municipal year.

Redbridge Council's Children and Young People Committee agreed its work plan for the 2026-27 municipal year in July 2026, setting three key priorities. These include enhancing educational outcomes, improving engagement with young people, and strengthening early help, safeguarding, and youth justice services. This approach aims to ensure focused reviews and avoid duplicating work.

These priorities follow Redbridge Council achieving UNICEF Child Friendly Borough accreditation in March 2026, becoming the first in England. This accreditation recognises boroughs that prioritise children's rights and well-being. No upcoming meetings are currently scheduled for this topic.
