As an independent and community led organisation we are able to provide a service which is right for everyone involved rather than having to work to other peoples’ agendas. The project is run by a Management Group on which all communities who join have equal representation and hence a role to play in shaping the work of the project.
Our service provides:
- Fully qualified professional Youth and Community Development staff.
- Professional support and supervision for all staff by our appointed independent provider, “Inspired to Achieve”.
- Access to support and advice in establishing and maintaining quality youth provision – policies, best practice and legal requirements.
- Insurance for youth workers and activities.
- Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) disclosure management and child protection arrangements.
- Consultation with young people in your community.
- A fully tailored support package relevant to your community – you can buy in as much or as little as you require.
- Established links with and work in local schools, including Stanchester Academy.
- Access to fundraising support for your group’s projects.
- Support to the recruitment, training and development of local volunteers.
- Organisation and running of trips, activities and events.
- Opportunities for joint working with other local communities and youth groups.
