Champion Child First and restorative approaches, ensuring young people’s voices are heard and shape the support they receive.
Drive service quality, innovation and continuous improvement, maintaining high standards and inspection readiness.
Work collaboratively with partners including Police, Probation, Health, Education, Social Care and SEND services to achieve the best outcomes for children.
Chair and contribute to multi-agency panels and forums, helping to make informed decisions that keep children safe and support positive change.
Contribute to strategic planning, service development and partnership working across Somerset’s Youth Justice network.
Promote equality, diversity and inclusion, ensuring every child, young person and family feels respected, valued and supported.
