LSCP Young Advisors

Welcome to Liverpool Safeguarding Children Partnership Young Advisors

Young Advisors are young people aged between 15 and 24, who show community leaders how to engage young people in community life, local decision-making and improving services. They also work with business leaders, bringing unique expertise and knowledge about being young to influence strategic planning, decision-making, and marketing.

The Young Advisors network is managed by a central charity, which brings the network of social franchises across the UK cohesion and support.

Liverpool Safeguarding Children Partnership (LSCP) currently has 11 active LSCP Young Advisors based across the City.

Feedback from partner agencies who have commissioned/worked with the LSCP Young Advisors:

“LSCP Young Advisors team are doing a fantastic job in helping to improve our communities and solve issues for young people. I was fortunate enough to attend a presentation delivered by Faith and Joe, two of the group at the Everyman regarding how Young People across the city feel about arts and culture and how they would like to engage. The presentation was excellently structured, well researched and delivered in a clear and concise manner plus passion and are well supported and supervised.

It is now our responsibility to help meet the Young Peoples's needs and deliver services/activities which they will both enjoy and gain benefit from. I have been made aware that the Young People are now looking at issues relating to school attendance and I am positive that they will again do an excellent job and have a real impact in this area”
