PIP - Junior Youth Inclusion Programme

 

PIP Presentation Evening Press Release.

 

PIP provides support for children and young people who are experiencing difficulties at home, in school or within their local community. The programme accepts referrals from agencies across the Southern Brooks area who have concerns about 8 to 12 year olds. PIP provides individual support, through focused 1-2-1 work and/or small and large group activities, to help children and young people lead happier and safer lives and reach their full potential.

 

 

Success stories

• PIP has supported 16 children and young people since the project started in April 2006 and received a further eight referrals for individuals not suitable for the programme;

• No further reported crimes by those already offending when they started the programme;

• Significant improvements in school behaviour for those who have received education support;

• Encouraging the young people to develop new skills which they may not have usually had e.g. bike maintenance, DJ workshops and rock climbing;

• Successful and effective partnership working with other agencies such as Social Services, the Police and Education;

• Actively participating in community events;

• Developing a project newsletter for children, parents and statutory and voluntary agencies;

• Successfully planning and delivering the project’s first residential camping trip to Newton Mill in Bath
