Torbay Youth Offending Service Torbay YOT Art Project - Encouraging young people to be creative

We are a multi agency team who work with young people aged between 10-17 who offend and are made the subject of a court order. Holistic risk led programmes of support aim to tackle young people's offending behaviour and instil a sense of change. We are an enthusiastic, motivated and committed team who aim to foster poster achievements in young people who enter the criminal justice system whilst addressing their offending behaviour. It's amazing to see the postive change that can occur in young people who are encouraged to take responsibility for their actions.

Some of the projects we develop aim to capture the enthusiasm and motivation that some young people who offend lack and i hope as you can see we have some very talented young people who certainly deserve the opportunity to make postive life changes.

Happy viewing :-)
