The Worcestershire Children and Young People's Strategic Partnership is a theme group of the Worcestershire Partnership set up to improve the quality of life for children and young people. Their vision is for "... Worcestershire to be the best place for children and young people to grow up."

The Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Board (WSCB) consists of senior representatives of the main agencies which have a responsibility to safeguard children. It is a forum for establishing and guiding the services in Worcestershire to safeguard and promote the well-being of children. Inter-Agency working is at the heart of safeguarding and protecting children and the WSCB works to ensure that all the agencies communicate with one another in the interests of the child.

'Meeting the needs of children and young people" is one of the 6 main themes for Wyre Forest Matters' Sustainable Community Strategy 'Making a Real Difference'. Its vision is that "All children and young people in the Wyre Forest district are healthy, safe, enjoy life and achieve success, make a positive contribution and benefit from economic wellbeing."
