Central to everything we do are our children and young people.  In engaging with our children and young people we have been greatly assisted by Who Cares Scotland and more recently the Life Changes Trust.  We aim to work in partnership with our children and young people and are putting in place arrangements to better support their playing a fuller role in the evaluation and development of our services.
