Conwy Children and Young People’s Partnership has made the most of the opportunity brought by the 20th anniversary of the UNCRC to raise the profile of children’s rights with professionals, children, and young people in Conwy. We had already done a lot of work in developing the local Children and Young People’s Plan, structured around 7 Core Aims, which are based on the UNCRC, promoting children’s rights, developing a charter for Conwy, and training professionals.
