These Partnerships, supported by a network of hubs, will bring local services together and deliver support for young people to help them live safe and healthy lives.</p><p>This will build on the DCMS funding to invest £500 million in youth services to ensure every young person will have access to regular clubs and activities, adventures away from home and opportunities to volunteer.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Barnsley South answering member printed Stephanie Peacock question first answered 09/09/2024 13:34:58 answering member 4607 label Biography information for Stephanie Peacock

The latest monitoring meeting highlighted that the local authority and partners are taking positive steps to improve services, with some evidence of early impact, but that there are still ways to go to ensure that all children and families receive the service they require and deserve.</p><p>The department has put in place robust support for the local authority and their partners through the appointment of a Sector Led Improvement Partner and SEND advisor support. The department will continue to work with the local area to ensure they deliver further improvements in services.</p><p>It is also important that the department has a fair education funding system that directs funding to where it is needed. Budgets for the 2025/26 financial year have not been set. This means that decisions on high needs funding for children and young people with complex SEND, and the publication of allocations to local authorities for that year, will not be to the usual timescales.</p> answering member constituency Newcastle upon Tyne North answering member printed Catherine McKinnell question first answered 26/07/2024 13:05:14 answering member 4125 label Biography information for Catherine McKinnell
