E.M.P.I.R.E is Croydon Council’s Children in Care Council & Care Leavers forum.
It stands for Empowerment, Memories, Positivity, Interesting, Respect and Educational; an acronym which provides a snapshot of the sessions.
The purpose of Empire is to empower looked after children, young people and care leavers with the confidence and power to influence policy change, shape the service and have their voice heard. Our offer is that all children and young people will automatically become a member from the day they become looked after by the Local Authority.
Empire gives looked after children the chance to identify common issues with the care they receive and make proposals for improvements. All of which are presented to the Corporate Parenting Panel at Croydon Council, Chaired by the Cabinet Member for Children, Young People, Education.
