FREE workshops for young people

Hello Barnsbury residents,

We would like to share the following message from The Neighbourhood Watch Network with you, an initiative organised by the Ben Kinsella Trust.

"FREE workshops for young people in London with the Ben Kinsella Trust.

As a resident of London, you may know at least one young person who could benefit from a FREE workshop from the Ben Kinsella Trust.  We are supporting the trust to reach as many young people in London and help them to make positive choices.  We know that not all of us are young, but we are asking you as a Londoner to share, if you can, this information about the workshops, designed especially for young people in London.

Please read the information from the Ben Kinsella Trust below about the workshops.:

Choices and Consequences Workshop

Our award-winning workshop supports young people to make positive, informed choices to stay safe. It explores issues including knife crime, the law and the consequences of decision-making, delivered in an engaging and age-appropriate way.

Impact

This evidence-based intervention has been proven to change belief systems linked to serious youth violence, debunking the myth that carrying a knife will protect someone, and increases the likelihood of young people taking pro-social action to keep themselves safe. We have delivered the programme to over 47,000 young people across the UK.

Location

Workshops take place at our exhibition venues in Islington and Barking & Dagenham.
