What does the Children’s Forum do?
As part of the Children’s Forum, you’ll have the
chance to make decisions about how the Council helps you and all
children in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
The Children’s Forum has been involved in a
range of activities recently, including:
- Help to design play areas and adventure play grounds.
- Help to decorate Children’s Forum new home in Holland
Park.
- Help to develop the Children and Young People Plan.
- Help to make the borough a safer place.
- Took part in Takeover Day –
where forum members took over council staff jobs.
- Help to improve our community
by cleaning up part of the Grand Union Canal.
It’s Ace! We have tea first, then talk about helping to improve
the borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Erika (aged 9)
