We focus on providing an integrated model of support for young people, using principles and methodologies that are rooted in relationship-based youth work to build relationship, assess need and plan interventions in response to that need. By building trusted relationships with young people over time, we create environments where young people feel safe to discuss concerns, access advice, and seek help when needed. This early engagement enables youth workers to identify emerging issues and provide preventative support before challenges escalate into crisis.
We adopt a mixed approach to our delivery, which seeks to move beyond a traditional youth club model in an effort to create local community, place-based access points for young people to:
- Engage in meaningful / educational youth work activities
- Develop positive peer relationships
- Have opportunities for meaningful engagement in their wider communities
- Access support services offered by Blend Youth Project – e.g., Sexual Health & Relationships, Employability, Mental Health
- Have improved access to support & signposting and referral routes to other
services.
