The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner’s Youth Service celebrated national Youth Work Week and shared some of the work they have been involved in during 2020. Early support for young people is at the very heart of the Commissioner’s Police, Fire and Crime Plan for the county.
Since their launch in January, the team of 12 specialists have worked throughout the pandemic, to identify meaningful support for 2,221 young people.
The team has supported vulnerable young people in learning to keep safe, working with them on themes such as emotional well-being, positive and healthy relationships, gang awareness, knife crime and the impact of drugs and alcohol misuse.
