Be part of a powerful network shaping the future for children, young people and families in Rotherham.
The CYPF Consortium brings together Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) organisations of all sizes – from grassroots community groups to well-established charities with national reach. What unites our members is our shared commitment: improving outcomes for children, young people and families.
By joining us, you’ll be connected to a vibrant community of organisations who collaborate, share expertise, and influence change.
Membership starts from just £75 for your first year, followed by a tiered fee structure based on your organisation’s turnover.
Member Benefits
As a member, you’ll have access to:
-
Networking & Events – monthly meetings, guest speakers, workshops and sector-wide networking opportunities.
-
Shared Knowledge – exchange expertise with like-minded organisations and strengthen your capacity.
-
Stronger Influence – amplify your voice in local strategy and raise your organisation’s profile across VCS and public sectors.
-
Information at Your Fingertips – receive regular updates on funding, training, consultations, opportunities and sector news.
-
Strategic Insight – gain access to local intelligence, frontline perspectives, policy updates and specialist knowledge shared across the network.
Accredited Membership
As a registered charity, we also develop collaborative funding bids and contracts – maximising resources and securing investment for Rotherham.
If your organisation wants to work collectively on commissioned services and joint-funded projects, you can apply to become an Accredited Member. This unlocks opportunities to co-deliver innovative, cost-effective initiatives such as the Smiles for Miles Base Project.
