Governance

Background

The Strategic Partnership for Children, Young People and Families was established in April 1998 (when Nottingham City Council became a Unitary Authority). It became a statutory partnership in 2001 with specific responsibility for the Children’s Fund.

The Partnership is a ‘themed’ partnership of the One City Partnership Nottingham (OCPN) and has an important role in the implementation of the Children Act (2004).
