Youth Resilience UK is a community interest company that aims to use a
restorative approach to help young people build resilience by understanding
their relationships, their choices and how they fit in to the world they live
in. We understand that schools especially, are facing increasing pressure on
their budgets and that the two main barriers to restorative approaches are time
and money. With this in mind we hope to work alongside national and local
funding bodies to create unique pathways for schools to access funding support
to help underpin the restorative approaches we offer. We believe that once young
people begin to; understand the impact of their actions, take responsibility for
their choices and develop the tools to be able to repair harm and conflict, they
build emotional and behavioural resilience and make positive choices going
forward on their path. At Youth Resilience UK CIC we recognise the need to
support those working with young people as they face the pressures of modern
families, social media, diverse cultures, lack of services and funding. All
these issues have the potential to continue to shift the way we support the
development of this and future generations. Young people have more choices, a
greater voice, access to an instant world at their fingertips, but many of our
most challenging young people have fewer skills at their disposal to help them
navigate this new territory.
