Service Children's Voice Conference

Following on the great success of last year’s event, the Kent and Medway Civilian Military Partnership Board is holding a second conference for children of armed forces personnel. The children who attended last year gave us overwhelmingly positive feedback - examples of comments they made included:

• You have helped me face my fears
• This was a great experience
• This was the best day ever!
• It was a good idea to mix students as we all made new friends
• I learned a lot about ways in which I can help others whose parents are serving
• Thanks for inviting my school!

The event also provided KCC and schools with information about what service children say are their challenges, and how they can best be supported. The report from last year, and a short video giving a flavour of the event, can be found at the Kent Council Leaders website

The conference is aimed at KS2 and KS3 children. If you are interested in sending service children to this event, or want more information about what is involved, please contact Alice McLean on 03000 41 64 66 or Alice.Mclean@kent.gov.uk.
