The Children’s Rights Service has been established since 2000 to increase the say that children and young people have in the services they use. There are a number of services that are offered to children and young people, which carers can also access.

This is the Brighton & Hove Pledge to children and young people in care and to care leavers.

Children in Care have a statutory entitlement to access to advocacy. The Youth Advocacy Project does not work as part of the multi-agency team and retains its independence in order to represent young people effectively.
