Detached

Our  detached team work on the streets 5 evenings a week between 5pm-9pm with the aim of building positive relationships with young people who may choose not to access any centre based youth provision. The areas of Blyth they cover are:

  • Blyth Town Centre
  • Blyth Sports Centre/Skate Park
  • Ridley Park
  • Newsham
  • South Beach Park
  • Briardale Centre Area
  • Isabella Centre Area
  • McDonalds

Our team have built up a great relationship with young people who choose not to access centre based provision and work closely with the police and local community to keep young people safe and reduce anti social behaviour in the town. The staff also work with young people to plan trips and activities that are important to them. Our work has been recommended for the practice and positive interventions with young people and situations.
