AYM Induction Presentation for YOT Management Boards

December 2, 2021 by AYM Admin Leave a Comment

We have created what we think is a useful template for YOTs to use
to induct new members to their Management/Partnership Boards.
The presentation has been trialled successfully in one youth justice
service.
We thought members might like to adopt the presentation for their
use and so we have added this to our website where you can
download it and amend as required to make it your own.

December 3, 2021 by AYM Admin Leave a Comment

We are pleased to announce winners of the 2021 John Hawkins Award:

Wakefield Youth Justice Service’s
‘Holistic Approach to Education, Inclusion and Well Being.’


Wakefield’s approach included locating funding streams and grants to develop a bespoke and multi-disciplinary workforce approach to complement existing staff structures that would
enable the provision of a meaningful education and health support pathway, and voluntary support package that would complement the statutory aspect youth justice provision.

The judges, young people working with Hampshire’s ‘Therapeutic Wellbeing Officers’ were impressed by the entries and said they chose Wakefield’s Approach to education inclusion and Wellbeing Approach because:

‘We feel it is a good project that is relevant to all young people.’

They were particularly impressed with the approach to developing young people’s skills to try and improve successful engagement in education.

They commented
‘If you don’t know how to ask for help it can affect you, you need to know how to ask for help so you can get it’.
