Youth Safety Strategy 2024-27
We want to make Newham a place where young people and families are safe and not hurt by violence or taken advantage of by others.
Our Youth Safety Strategy puts children and young people first and aims to create safer spaces and supportive communities for all.
Who is this for?
This plan is for all children, young people, and their families in Newham, up to the age of 25.
What help is available?
There are lots of ways for children, young people, families, and people in the community to get help early. This includes support to stop problems before they start and to help when things get difficult.
