Journey to become a Child Friendly City

child friendly city [ [link removed] ]

How would Nottingham be different if children had more control over decision making? That?s precisely what we?re trying to find out.

Nottingham is currently in the Discovery phase of the three-to-five-year journey to become a Child Friendly City (CFC), supported with funding from Small Steps Big Changes (SSBC). Our aim is that children and young people can actively influence the decisions being made within the city.?

Next week, 15 November, we will host around 80 children and young people at a Discovery Day with UNICEF UK. We will be asking the children what they like and don?t like about Nottingham, as well as understanding their ideas for how the city can improve.

The views of the young people will help us to identify the key priorities for Nottingham?s Child Friendly City programme to deliver. This means the young people themselves are developing the goals (known as our CFC Priority Badges) that we will work towards to make Nottingham a Child Friendly City. This is local democracy in action.

Today we held a service on the steps of the Council House to mark Armistice Day. Nottingham City Councillors including the Deputy Leader Cllr Adele Williams, Lord Mayor Cllr Wendy Smith and Sheriff of Nottingham Cllr Nicola Heaton joined the Lord Mayor?s Chaplain Rev Peter Shaw and Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Nottinghamshire Tom Huggon and members of the public to pay their respects to those who have bravely fought and lost their lives for this country.

On Sunday I?ll be attending the traditional Remembrance Service at the city?s war memorial on Victoria Embankment. The ceremony will begin at 10.45am and include the two-minute silence and wreath laying. The Nottinghamshire Band of The Royal Engineers (volunteers), accompanied by the Nottingham Hospitals? Choir will provide music for the service.
