The programme starts on Monday 19th September and will offer tailored training and support, including one-to-one mentoring, to enhance participants’ personal and social development. For further information on how to get involved with Youth Works please contact Claire Meenehan, Project Co-Ordinator at Include Youth, claire@includeyouth.org or Tel: 02890.311007.

This resource has been developed by the Curriculum Development Unit (CDU) in response to requests from youth workers for a practical guide that would further clarify the core principles identified in Youth Work: A Model for Effective Practice, and help them to put the Three Core Principles into practice in their work with young people. It is aimed at supporting youth workers to identify and create opportunities to engage with young people in discussions and activities, taking account of the Three Core Principles in their practice.
