Youth Unity - Our Values

Youth Unity CIC is a “not for profit” organisation established to provide effective help and support to vulnerable young people and adults affected by group violence (gangs), drugs and other forms of exploitation such as human trafficking, CSE and extremism. We work in collaboration with statutory organisations, commissioned services and charities to provide a more cohesive approach to solutions.

We focus on improving opportunities for all, especially young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. Our overall belief is that by helping to improve the overall health and well-being of an individual they can make better informed choices and decisions.

We offer mentoring, workshops and training for young people, professionals, parents and carers.

Our core belief revolves around ensuring that every young person is treated fairly and as a unique individual, regardless of factors such as age, gender, race, religion, ability, or background.

As an organisation, our primary objective is to facilitate the thriving and realisation of the full potential of young individuals, ensuring they are thoroughly prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in their adult lives.

We follow the three P's

PROTECT

To strengthen adults and young people by building their emotional and cognitive (thinking) resilience, better enabling them to ‘say no’ to violence, drugs, crime and other forms of vulnerability.We work with statutory services, education, police, social care, LSCBs, charities, LA's, to deliver productions, workshops and training for young people and adults across the UK.
