Leap Confronting Conflict (experts for 30 years in creatively addressing youth conflict) is working with Bristol City Council to create a multi-agency and peer influencer led approach to addressing violence across Bristol. Having trained Peer-Influencers in Bristol City Council, one of Leap's senior trainers, Amanda Nelmes, will be co-delivering FREE online workshops for practitioners working with young people across Bristol in April and May. If you are interested in this training, or being involved in the project in another way, please contact Sam Buckley from the Safer Options Team Buckley@Bristol.gov.uk For more information about Leap Confronting Conflict visit www.leapconfrontingconflict.org.uk

This has been a very insightful submit as someone working with young people from all ages, and its exciting to see us all coming together and looking to come up with a proactive plan to tackle some of these issues! I recognise majority of the organisations featured today are those who work directly in tackling the issues on the grounds, Babbasa is looking to support this work through supporting young people access real life work opportunities to hopefully provide a positive next step for those looking to come out of these situations and also to help young people with additional barriers access real life paid opportunities through bridging the world of work and our communities, particularly those from marginalised backgrounds, through educating Business’s. with hands on support. If anyone is working with a young person id love to support in helping them access their next steps when they are ready. My email is Outreach@byep.org.uk
