Inetgrated Youth Support Service

The Integrated Youth Support Service has been developed to support and lead on the delivery of a comprehensive integrated Youth Offer for 13-19 year olds (and up to 25 where there is additional need). The key aim of the Integrated Youth Support Service is to ensure that all local young people have the chance to enjoy happy, healthy and safe teenage years that prepare them well for adult life and enable them to reach their full potential.

This is achieved by:

• Ensuring that local young people have access to a range of positive activities and informal learning opportunities tailored to suit their needs.
• Providing impartial information advice and guidance to help young people make more informed choices, about learning, raise their aspirations and equip them to make safe and sensible decisions about sexual health and substance misuse.
• Ensuring that young people are engaged in shaping the services they receive and by encouraging more young people to volunteer and become involved in their communities.
• Offering more personalised, joined up support and activities for young people who are experiencing difficulties.
