PROVISION OF YOUTH WORK SERVICES

Detached youth work is an outreach service engaging at-risk young people in their own communities-typically streets, parks, or gathering spots-rather than traditional venues. Teams of three qualified youth workers proactively approach groups, building voluntary, trusting relationships through informal education. Sessions focus on conflict de-escalation, promoting non-violent alternatives, and addressing issues like discrimination, mental health, and exploitation. Workers advocate for youth, facilitate access to support services, report environmental hazards (e.g., poor lighting), and collaborate with police/local agencies. The approach aims to divert youth from violence while fostering resilience and community cohesion, as defined in the tender's specifications. For this particular Lot the services will be delivered within Nottingham City.

School and Community Navigator Work involves trained practitioners embedded in schools to support children and young people (CYP) aged 10-17 at risk of exclusion or disengagement. Navigators provide 1:1 trauma-informed mentoring, addressing issues like behavioural challenges. They collaborate with school pastoral teams to create tailored support plans, facilitate access to external services (e.g., mental health or substance misuse programs), and extend outreach to families/communities when needed. The role focuses on early intervention-improving school attendance, reducing violent behaviour, and fostering resilience-using evidence-based approaches aligned with the Youth Endowment Fund's recommendations for mentoring and social skills development.
