Introduction of self and role.

Discuss why you are here:

Say you are here to help raise awareness on current issues young people in our community may experience or have experienced around criminality. West Yorkshire Police have developed a video toolkit that highlights concerns such as involvement in drugs, drug addiction and violence which are discussed in a real life based format.

The video toolkit has 3 videos:

1 – Pathways into criminality

2 – Drug addiction

3 – Early intervention / diversionary work

Inform group that today’s session is around video 3 which is ‘’early intervention/diversionary work’. Explain that you will pause the video at certain points to discuss as a group what you have seen. At the end of the video there will be a group activity too.

Start the video. Play the video until 4.42 and pause for discussion. Ask if they have any questions/thoughts before you start.

In this section, Ibrar from Bradford Moor Pass mentions (repeat below points to the group) :

• Taking back the community

• Provide support and supervision to those who may be heading into criminality

• Provide activities like boxing that divert young people away from criminality

Ask the group:

• How important are groups like PASS?

• Are more youth facilities needed?

• Do you think criminal gangs are capitalising on the lack of youth facilities?

Play the video until 9.06 and pause for discussion. Ask if they have any questions/thoughts before you start.

In this section Iain and Richard from St Giles mentions (repeat below points to the group):

• How their organisation supports those who are involved in criminality by employing people who have experienced criminality previously. This is called ‘lived experience’

• Society as a whole taking responsibility

• Having positive role models

Ask the group:

• What’s the advantage of receiving support from those who have ‘lived experiece’ when helping those currently in criminality?

• Richard mentions that having positive role models is key. How can having positive role models help a young person?

Play the video until the end. Ask if they have any questions/thoughts of the clip they have seen.

In this section Breaking the Cycle talk about (repeat below points to the group):

• How their service works with young people who have entered criminality and how they work towards diverting them back into schools and vocational activities

• John showcases the positive approach youth workers take in ‘getting through’ to young people

Video activity 3. Split the group into groups of 3. Hand the activity sheet out to each group. Ask the group to answer the question on the sheet and to write them in the box provided.

Give the group 10 minutes to list their answers.

Then 5 minutes for all the groups to relay their answers to everyone.

There are no wrong or right answers. However the answers could include (not an exhaustive list):

1. Positive role models

2. Youth centres

3. Youth workers

4. Diversionary activities

5. Education

6. Part time job / volunteer work
