Our aim is to contribute to the personal and social development of Leicester's young people, enabling their contributions to and inclusion within our diverse city.
Youth work depends on a unique relationship between the youth worker and the young person. It is an equal yet voluntary relationship that enables personal growth. We help this development via:
- Group work
- One-to-one work
- Youth forums and councils
- Trips and visits
- Mentoring
- Peer education
- After-school study support clubs
- Counselling
- Accredited awards (e.g. Duke of Edinburgh)
- Music playing and recording
- Youth theatre
- Video production/multi-media projects
- Magazine production
- Sport and leisure activities
- Basic skills work
- International exchanges and trips.
The setting for our work includes free-standing community and youth centres, secondary schools, detached work-working with young people on the streets, mobile projects and residential trips.
