SMASH is a Swindon charity with over 20 years’ experience delivering one-to-one and group mentoring for young people aged 9-19. The organisation’s programmes aim to help young people to flourish through building their confidence and resilience. SMASH will bring skills in both group work and one-to-one mentoring, providing the project capacity to work positively with young people, whatever their starting point. Luke will be facilitating the youth voice workshops.

Prime Theatre works with young people to help them gain confidence and skills through theatre, body language and arts. Their skills and approach will bring an extra dimension to the support and activities the forum will offer - one that young people have told us they want included. Nyree will be facilitating the Youth Voice workshops.

VAS is the project's lead organisation and will oversee the whole project. As the local infrastructure organisation, VAS has extensive experience in bringing organisations together and coordinating projects with a community focus.

Youth Voice Project Manager Lisa will be the first point of contact, offering an initial home visit or meet up to learn more about the project wherever you are comfortable.

S&G Mind has specialist skills and experience in helping young people who may be experiencing anxiety and other mental health problems.

S&G Mind will work 121 with children and young people who may need some extra support feeling able to join the core sessions. These are for anyone who may not feel confident, have low self-esteem and/or be socially isolated.

The aim of the 121 work will be to provide support and skills to young people, enabling them to feel more empowered to join the youth voice workshops being offered. This will be provided by Hannah.
