The second Sefton’s Childhood Poverty Strategy event took place on 29th June 2023 at Bootle Cricket Club. It was wonderful to welcome almost a hundred senior leaders and practitioners from both Sefton and across the region, all committed to tackling this challenging issue.
The Strategy is our response to the challenges faced by children and families and provides the blueprint for our approach to tackling childhood poverty in Sefton.
The main objective of the Conference was to bring you together to talk, listen and learn about improving the Prospects of Children who grow up in poverty. The conference agenda focused on -early years, school-age children, vocational, further, and higher education as well as employment and skills.
The range and number of people who attended reflect a collective determination to act on the continuing causes of child poverty in Sefton. Thank you to all the contributors and participants for an informative and productive day!
