Overview

The YPF will be a newly registered charity made up of organisations that works with children and young people (CYP).

Camden would like to support the development of a YPF Shadow Board that will assume full responsiblity for the governance of the YPF on an interim basis - ensuring it is effectively and properly developed to meet its overall purposes as set out in the governing document.
