Information

This manifesto sets out clearly what we are delivering in Northamptonshire to support young people, why it matters, and the difference we are determined to make – now and for the future. It is both a statement of intent and a call to action.

Our specialist teams work directly with young people and families, delivering targeted interventions that address vulnerability, reduce harm and tackle the root causes of risk. This approach prevents escalation, reduces demand on emergency services and allows enforcement to focus where it is truly needed.

Safe and Sound Young People is delivered through several integrated areas, forming a single preventative youth offer from the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner.

These workstreams complement the work of partners including Northamptonshire Police, Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service, the local authorities, the Children’s Trust, health and specialist youth providers, ensuring no young person falls through the gaps.

• Girls Pathway Project – Early identification and targeted support preventing exploitation and violence against vulnerable girls
