Our Strategic Group
The Youth Alliance holds a bi-monthly strategic Steering Group meeting to discuss local trends and themes in Derby City and to establish the best course of action for us to take collaboratively to reduce harm and risks to our children and young people. We discuss funding opportunities to enable us to continue our work, and use local intelligence from our own industries to get a bigger picture of what is happening in our city. We work together on individual children and place referrals, and co-ordinate projects within the community where there are children in need of our support.

Children First Derby
Our charity’s founding aim is to relieve the distress and suffering experienced by children and families in the local area.
Children First Derby provides three bespoke services; a Family Support Service, A Mentoring Service, and a Supervised Family Time Service for looked after children.
Umbrella Derby
Umbrella enables disabled children and young adults to realise their full potential.
We empower parents and carers and provide exciting, stimulating activities for children and young adults which encourage the development of skills, whilst having fun; giving disabled children and young adults opportunities that non-disabled children take for granted
