Universal area based youth work is delivered in five area based teams within the borough and managed by an area team leader. Each area has a combination of types of youth work, including:
Youth Centres
Purpose built centres running weekly programmes for local young people.
Detached
Youth workers make contact with young people in venues such as parks, street corners and shopping centres.
Part-time clubs
Open once or twice a week. These clubs usually take place in a shared building such as a school or a community centre.
Work in schools
We run a wide range of alternative curriculum projects within schools.
Partnership work
Youth workers will also work in partnership with other agencies to deliver programmes for local young people.
