Youth Work Connect – Drugs, Risk and Reality: Building Safer Responses with Young People

@ Young people are increasingly exposed to drugs, and youth work plays a critical role in helping them stay safe. This interactive online session explores what really works in practice, moving beyond fear-based approaches towards evidence informed, relationship-based harm reduction. Our role is not simply prevention, it is reducing harm, supporting decision-making, and keeping young people safe in the reality they live in. This interactive session brings the youth sector together to explore how we can support young people safely and realistically, using evidence-based approaches grounded in youth work principles. Rather than focusing solely on prevention, this session will explore how we can: Reduce harm and support informed decision-making Respond to risk while maintaining relationships Move beyond fear-based or one-off approaches Build practical, consistent responses rooted in young peoples lived realities Participants will engage in discussion, shared reflection and case-based exploration, with opportunities to learn from sector expertise and peer practice We will be joined at this Youth Work Connect by:

More about Westcotes

Leicestershire, England

Westcotes sits quietly in Leicestershire where the air feels a bit less crowded than the city centre. The Manor House has been hosting local talent for years while the Merry Monarch offers a pint and a laugh if you need a break from the garden. It is not often you find two places that make such good neighbours to each other. Things here move at a pace that lets everyone catch their breath before the next gig or community gathering. You can walk straight from one spot to another without needing to consult a map or ask for directions. Near Here keeps track of what's on so you do not have to waste time hunting for ideas on your own.
