How to win: Sutton Youth Outreach & Diversion

About this contract

This project has been funded by MOPAC via the London Crime Prevention Fund until 31st March 2029 to improve children's feelings of safety in public areas within Sutton. The project aims to provide youth workers to intervene with children in the community and provide reassurance to them. The intention is to intervene in public spaces where children report feeling unsafe (e.g. High Streets, parks, transport hubs) and in areas known to have increased rates of youth ASB/offending. The partnership will identify locations for this intervention to take place through our monthly Problem Solving Meeting, using intelligence shared by Police and insights provided by partners (e.g. locations of concern identified by the borough's Multi Agency Child Exploitation Panel). There will also be a reactive response offered following serious incidents that take place in the borough. The Budget for this Project is in the range of £35, 000 - £40,000 maximum per year. Please refer to the specification for full details
