Service description:

Service Six provides the TARGET Project across Northamptonshire and Leicestershire, funded by the Big Lottery.
The project aims to challenge the many and increasing dangers to children and young people online, supporting 900+ young people aged 5-18 year olds in Northamptonshire and Leicestershire.
Project beneficiaries will increase their online protective behaviours, improve their wellbeing and increase their transferable knowledge and skills.
This service is currently for disadvantaged children and young people aged 5-18 (up to 25 for Disabled Young People) who will have been identified as at risk or already affected by online sexual exploration and abuse. Work undertaken by the project beneficiaries may lead to referrals into other internal and external services.
The project aims to achieve young people with an increased awareness of online protective behaviours, increased levels of wellbeing, increased transferable life skills and increased accredited youth volunteering.

The service is based around client’s needs/availability, but is also depending on venue availabilities.
