OUTREACH PROJECT
This was funded by The Peter Kershaw Trust from January 2009 to
January 2010 and was a valuable and productive piece of work.
By engagaing with Young People on the streets, our Youth Team was able to divert
young people away from becoming involved in anti-social or criminal behaviour and encourage them to participate in productive
activity.
Young people and their families have commented on the value of the project and we
are activly seeking funds to continue the work.
