Hertfordshire Children's Trust Partnership Participation Toolkit
The Hertfordshire Children’s Trust Partnership framework on involving children and young people brings together the legislative requirements, best practice research and key issues relating to different professions and agencies covering all forms of work that involves children and young people in decision making processes. This participation toolkit sets out the principles, definitions and best practice for the participation, consultation and involvement work with all children and young people, so that they can be involved in decisions which affect their lives.
