Why are we asking for your ideas?

Children and young people, including those with a care experience, are encouraged to share ideas with the government about how to keep children and young people safe in the community.   
 
These changes will create new rules that better respond to children’s needs and help keep children safe in organisations.  

This survey only has four questions and won't take too long to answer.
