Liverpool UNICEF Child Friendly City

Colleagues from the University are working closely with a range of partners across the the city to help Liverpool on its journey towards international recognition as a UNICEF Child Friendly City.

The Child Friendly City programme will embed a commitment to children’s rights and investment in children’s health, well-being and development in Liverpool. It offers a unique opportunity for maximising the impact of the University’s research on the local community.

In this film, meet Professor Helen Stalford from the Faculty's Liverpool Law School, Steve Reddy, Director of Children and Young People’s Services at Liverpool City Council, Trish Mattinson, Head of Service for Children and Young People at Mersey Care, plus members of the University's Young People's Advisory Group to find out how partnerships can deliver real benefits for the city's youth.
