Many young people in our community face challenges including a lack of positive role models, violence at home, generational offending, unaddressed mental health needs, special educational needs, self-harm, knife and gun crime, drug/alcohol abuse. With your support, we can help 50 young people reduce their risk and/or address their offending behaviour, providing 400 hours of intensive, proven key work support for some of the most vulnerable young people in our community.

Our support is tailored to the individual and focussed on promoting positive outcomes. We are skilled in advocating for our young people and their families, and work closely with other agencies to ensure all of the needs of the individual are effectively addressed. We work particularly closely with the youth justice service, police, probation, social services, ensuring that we will offer our support to those who need it most.
