We spoke to the REBOOT Sussex team this morning about their work with at-risk teens – those at risk of being involved in crime as well as being a victim of crime. REBOOT uses a pioneering one-to-one, tailored approach to supporting young people, partnering them with a mentor youth coach, in order to keep them away from crime and building skills and resilience. It fills a gap to help those on the periphery of criminal activity and leads them on to more positive behaviours.
In the Q&A they discussed what parents could do if they have concerns about their child – and also how to spot signs of them being drawn into criminality.
Daisy Cresswell from Make (Good) Trouble was joined by REBOOT Operational lead, Roisin Vafaee , John Wilkes, Head of Partnerships for the Office of the Sussex Police & Crime Commissioner, and Laura Hussey, REBOOT Youth Worker.
