SAFE is facilitated with peer-led workshops. The aim of this project is to empower young people with additional learning needs to lead the conversation and education around their own relationships improving knowledge and awareness of these topics for our beneficiaries of this project.
We strive to help prevent anyone from partaking in risky sexual behaviours, unsafe relationships and to aid with the prevention of exploitation. Sexuality and gender is also a big topic for SAFE, being inclusive is a key factor for the volunteers and beneficiaries who attend workshops.
The young people we work with gain a lot from our project, the knowledge they acquire helps them to feel safer in their community, giving them the confidence to feel able to talk to people and report any concerns criminal actions related to the SAFE topics discussed. Volunteers and beneficiaries can also understand positive, life improving skills for safer, healthy lifestyle.
