Community Connections Youth Team work with young people in Plymouth who are aged between 11 and 19 (up to 25 years old where there is a specific additional need or disability). We make use of a wide range of learning opportunities that allow young people to feel safe, develop as individuals, take part and contribute, as valued members of our community. As well as delivering key programmers and activities, we support external and partnership projects to promote the same values and skills for young people.
Our staff support the young people of Plymouth in all aspects of their lives. These include:
- Youth Workers who support generic and specialised work within area and targeted teams.
- Personal Advisors who support young people over the age of 18 who are leaving care.
- Workers from different professions (including Social Workers, Youth Offending Workers, Police and Probations Officers, Mental Health Practitioners and Education Welfare Officers) who work together to support young people under the age of 18, who have either been accused of committing, or have committed, a crime. This team also work with young people to prevent them from offending.
