SMART SOCIAL

Smart Social is a social enterprise seeking sustainable solutions to social ills. We don’t believe sticking plasters are the answer @hopecollective2 #Reimagined

[SMART SOCIAL @SmartSocialLDN]

When it comes to violence affecting young people it’s clear that without a trauma informed approach that respects the truth about poverty & inequality we are talking about sticking plasters. Lot of heavy lifting involved shifting a paradigm! @HopeCollective2 #SmartSocial

[Steve Chalke @SteveChalke]

We will struggle to solve the issue of young people who are not in education, employment or training until we find the courage to overhaul our entire education system including the narrowness of its pedagogy, its assessment system & the misguided nature of its inspection system.

@HopeCollective2 @riofoundation @VR_Network @Yahye_Abdi_ @usmxnahmxd1 @GeorgeFielding1 @youthworkable @niven_SIS These are the conversations we need to have if we are to restore youth work to its pride of place as a vital front line service.

We need to demarcate policing and social care from youth work. Good old fashioned trusted adult youth work works #PublicHealth 💪

[THE HOPE COLLECTIVE @HopeCollective2]

Great conversation today with @riofoundation leading. Discussing how traditional youth work values became marginalised by preoccupation with violence by funders.

We heard time and time again at Hope Hacks how young people felt stereotyped by the violence narrative #PublicHealth

[Greater Manchester Violence Reduction Unit @GM_VRU]

Greater Manchester is committed tackling crime with preventative and community-led approaches.

We’ve had great success in reducing crime through youth work and prevention this year, with no plans to slow down.

[Home Office @ukhomeoffice]

Violence Reduction Units have helped prevent thousands of violent injuries.

A £66 million investment in twenty of these units will target the causes of violence through localised sport, education and deterrence programmes.

[THE HOPE COLLECTIVE @HopeCollective2]

Great news that the Violence reduction units (VRU) across England are receiving ongoing funding

Big shout out to Sarah @LabourSJ who championed the public health approach while in opposition

Our project has proudly carried forward the work of @YouthViolenceUK

Either way we are proud to have John in the family! #TeamHope

Talking about tough subjects can be challenging for young people.

The young people of Luton who took part in @HopeCollective2 Hope Hack 43 yesterday tackling VAWG did amazingly well. Well done @bedspolice @BedsVEPP @BedsPCC and huge thanks @riofoundation #LegacyOfHope
