Public Relations & Communications - Leeds, England, United Kingdom
Leeds has an important ambition. We want to be the best city for all our children and young people to grow up in – a place where children are valued, supported, enjoy living and can look forward to a bright future – a truly child friendly city. Leeds has placed children and young people at the very heart of the growth strategy of the city. Child Friendly Leeds was launched by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2012. Since then, a growing number of partners across the city have been working together to create better outcomes for children and young people in Leeds. Child Friendly Leeds brings everyone who shares this ambition together across the city; from enthusiastic individuals to large organisations. Every contribution counts and everyone can play their part and make a difference. Child Friendly Leeds is helping to make something truly unique and special happen. Together we are creating a cultural change: celebrating and empowering young people growing up in Leeds today and building a more socially connected and economically successful city for the future.If you share our ambition for Leeds to be the best city for children and young people to grow up in, you can become a Child Friendly Leeds ambassador. Our ambassadors work with us on a range of fantastic initiatives to promote the best start in life and help children and their families to lead healthy and active lives. Our ambassadors promote this vision through their networks and social media platforms, listen to the voices of children, young people and families, and use feedback to improve their practice and/or services. Child Friendly Leeds can help organisations shape and deliver the aims of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) programmes. Ambassadors are invited to regular networking events, receive updates via newsletters, get involved in various projects to help young people develop their skills and experience, and involve their staff in fundraising.
