We oversee the transformation, development and delivery of regional of children's services across Bridgend, Merthyr Tydfil and Rhondda Cynon Taf.
Our members include people from health, social services, the third sector, education and housing.
We will do this by monitoring progress of the services within scopes; ensuring services deliver anticipated outcomes to children and young people; monitor budgets and ensure value for money is being achieved, and identify opportunities for the commissioning of regional services.
Our priorities
Our priorities have been created with people with lived experiences and professionals working with children and young people.

“If I could give advice to any other kid, or social services, I would tell them to come and see this house and prove to them, if you have problems like me, you could get a house like this, and it would change their life. The best life I’ve ever had is living here.”
Young person with complex needs who has been supported to live in accommodation commissioned through the Regional Children’s Board.
