To achieve this, Islington wants to make sure that all young people benefit from consistent and high-quality relationships with youth workers that support their social and emotional development. Those relationships support young people through the adolescent phase of their lives, and through exposing them to a range of experiences, opportunities and support, help them to develop resilience to cope with change and adversity and avoid negative pathways in future. The new Young Islington universal youth work offer has been developed which will be community focused, building sustainable networks across the borough with a shared and coherent vision linking into and building capacity amongst community youth providers and groups.
