Targeted Support Youth offer

Our Targeted Support – Youth offer provides tailored help for young people aged 11–19 who may benefit from additional guidance.

Young People’s Workers

Young People’s Workers work with young people aged 11-19. They offer support to learn new life skills to build their confidence and resilience. This can include issues such as:

• healthy relationships
• making safe choices
• managing emerging mental health needs.

• To work with a Young People’s Worker, a young person requires an Early Help Assessment (EHA). This helps us better understand their needs and make sure they are offered the right support. This is a voluntary service that requires the young person to give consent to work with a Young People’s Worker. The professional who completes the EHA will explain confidentiality and what we do with their information. They will also explain what will happen after the EHA is completed.

  Targeted Youth Groupwork programmes

  Young people may benefit from engaging in groupwork programmes. This can help them understand their challenges and gain skills to manage risks and make positive choices.

  Our programmes:

  • provide a safe space for young people to learn and develop new life skills through informal education
  • help young people develop their confidence and self-esteem
  • help young people to gain knowledge and skills that builds their capacity and resilience to manage risks, solve problems and make positive choices
