encouraging a positive future

This project offers weekly one to one mentoring sessions, along with a youth group activity in their locality area and activities within the school holiday. During the session, we complete work in relation to understanding exploitation and grooming, healthy and unhealthy friendships and relationships, understanding consent, online safety and safety in the community.

We also support the young person with the emotional wellbeing, healthy lifestyle, positive choices and behaviour. We act a support system for the young person to talk their emotions and issues they may have. We then relay the relevant information back to the professionals involved or signpost the young person to support networks that are beneficial to them; ensuring a person-centred approach to encourage positive future.

The aims of the project include:

• Improve education, behaviour, attitude, attendance and reduce exclusions.
• To improve emotional well being.
• Engagement in positive activities in the local community.
• Raise awareness of a range of subject topics.
