For city locality leaders

A Child Friendly Locality

A neighbourhood should work like a safe playground with a few streets in it, not the other way round.

What you can do

  • Create safe parks, play areas and walkable routes to school.
  • Improve street lighting and traffic safety near schools and homes.
  • Support crèches and day care for working parents.
  • Make sure residents know to call 1098 (Childline) or 112 if a child is at risk.
  • Invite children and teens to share ideas at ward and society meetings.

Take the first step

Bring families in your ward or society together for a talk, a play day or a parent circle.
