Young Men’s Group
The young men’s project provides a safe environment to meet and discuss current affairs and issues that affect the local community and the young men within it. We hold weekly discussion on topics such as teenage parents, peer pressure, gangs, relationships and media perceptions of young men. We have a safe and supportive environment in which to explore individual perceptions and stereotypes. Each month guest speakers such as community police officers, black historians and community activists are invited to attend the sessions in order to enhance the discussions.
Meetings every Friday from 5-00pmto 6-30pm.

NEETS Drop In
The project works in partnership with external organizations to deliver training to young people to increase employment prospects, although it is not compulsory. These sessions are offered during the day time and are aimed at young people who are not currently accessing employment or education opportunities. At these sessions young people are able to access advice and support as well as relevant resources to support their career developments. It is important that this aspect of the work is relaxed and informal and user led.

To offer the best quality support to our students, the project is as flexible and as individual as possible. Our programme aims at working on specific issues, without imposing unreasonable expectations. We motivate young people to achieve improved levels of self-esteem and social development in a safe and productive environment.
SNAP works with year 9, 10 and 11 students in small groups because this offers the best chance of re-integration to students at risk of permanent exclusion or long-term non-attendance.
