Introducing Tough Topics: Youth Violence Prevention Programme

Empowering Young People | Preventing Violence | Creating Safer Futures
The Time for Change is Now
​
For over 20 years, I have worked alongside young people affected by violence, gangs, and exploitation—helping them navigate the challenges of their world and find meaningful solutions. I have seen the power of education, open conversations, and the right support in transforming lives.

That’s why I created the Youth Violence Prevention Programme—a groundbreaking, interactive educational tool designed to help young people make positive choices, break the cycle of violence, and build safer communities.

Tough Topics: Youth Violence is available now from Loggerhead Publishing:
https://loggerheadpublishing.co.uk/tough-topics/

Spread the word and share with your networks. Together, we can be the change that breaks the cycle.
It's time to end the silence around the violence.

Let's Talk About Gangs - Advice for Parent's and Caregivers

​Violent crime appears to be on the increase yet again. Every day seems to bring with it another news story of a knife, gun or gang related crime. We are living in a time where crimes are getting more and more serious and at the same time the age of young people becoming involved appears to be getting younger.
This leaflet exists to give you the parent, carer or guardian the basic facts on what gangs are, possible signs to look for if you are worried about your child and where to go if you need advice.
