The peer education programme works with young people to identify issues that they feel are having a negative impact on them and their community. Young people participate in training and decide which issues they would like to address. They then explore their chosen topic and decide on the message(s) they want to put out to others. They are then supported to work up their message and create an awareness campaign. As part of this, they create a short film which becomes the centrepiece for awareness workshops they deliver to other young people at youth clubs, schools and other agencies.
Young people ran awareness campaigns around knife crime, youth exploitation, substance misuse, peer pressure, bullying, identity, safety for young women, community safety, young refugees, mental health, disability, healthy living, homelessness and cost of living.
