Islington is making changes to the way local services for children, young people, and families work. We want these services to be easier to use, quicker to respond, and more joined‑up so families get the right help at the right time.
We want young people and families themselves to help shape these changes. That’s why we’re looking for parents, carers, and young people aged 0–25 to join our group of Co‑Designers.
Why this matters
Families often have to deal with lots of different local services - health, schools, social care, and more. By shaping services together, we can make sure support is:
Simple to find - with services in one place, like online or in a Family Hub.
Available when needed
Flexible - shaped around each family’s situation.
Joined up - so families don’t have to repeat their story again and again.
What you’ll do
As part of a group of co-designers, you’ll:
Join workshops and group sessions (in person or online).
Share your experiences of using local services.
Work with other families and professionals to come up with ideas.
Give feedback as changes are made.
Who we’re looking for
You don’t need special qualifications - just your experience as a parent, carer, or young person in Islington. We want to hear from people across all of our diverse communities.
👉 Apply now using the application forms below to join us as a Co-Designer and help shape the future of local services in Islington.
Information collected via our application forms will be stored securely and used to recruit a group of parents, carers and young people to help shape the future of our services. Read our full privacy policy.
