Our mentoring programme, which provides sustained support, is aimed at older young people from ages of 16 – 25. This programme focuses more on supporting young people into work, training, further and higher education and self-employment. This programme has proven to be most successful as it has brought a number of successes for the young people we have worked with and it also creates a knock on effect for the younger people as they see more and more of our young men and women making positive changes.
The 1 Mile Away School Reintegration Programme has been developed to support children who have been excluded from normal lessons or expelled to reintegrate back in to mainstream schooling. Working with pupils in Pupil Referral Centre’s or in school behavioural support classes we deliver a programme of workshops alongside intense mentoring covering issues to change negative mind sets and support with personal issues which may be causing the pupil to act out with negative behavioural patterns.
Our education programme uses the 1 Mile Away film and music to get young people (aged 11-16) thinking about the realities of getting involved in gangs, criminality and antisocial behaviour. A series of 50 minute workshops delivered flexibly in schools, youth centres and Pupil referral centres. Participants develop their own community campaign and organised debates to tackle social issues.
