  The Street Youth Project was funded through the Youth Crime Action Plan to work in areas of high antisocial behavior at various locations in Peterborough.By working with young people on a Friday and Saturday evening, we were able to reduce antisocial behavior significantly across the city.A byproduct of this project was a Saturday night football project which at its height was delivering to over 80 young people in Dogsthorpe each week.I supporting a working group of four young people to successfully present to a Dragons Den style panel and secure £50,000.00 of capital funding. These funds refurbished the Street Youth Bus which is now used by many different youth groups across the city. Show less
