Community Projects

Youth Offender Panels

 

 

Here are examples of community projects:

Cleaning off Graffiti, mending fences and cleaning subways
A young offender who has defaced a building or broken a fence will be required to fix it if they are able. If the crime is not so clear cut, then the youth might be asked to do community work like cleaning the graffiti off murals in a subway.

Helping out at Oxfam
Young people agree to sort clothes and polish brass.

Riding for the Disabled
At a stable in Hemel Hempstead, young offenders help mentally and physically disabled people more vulnerable than themselves to ride. This encourages feelings of care and responsibility often not experienced before.

Gardening for Age Concern
Young people tend the gardens of elderly people too frail to manage this for themselves.
