  • Nottinghamshire Violence Reduction Unit.

 
 

For the last five years, Al-Hurraya has continued to work with Nottinghamshire Violence Reduction Unit (NVRU) as a trusted Charity to support members of the ethnic minority communities to deliver Early Intervention and Educational Workshops. We have also been carrying out preventative work on targeted youth projects.

The educational workshops covered issues that present within communities such as:

  • Radicalisation

  • Extremism

  • Knife Crime

  • Gang Culture

  • Substance Misuse

  • Anti-social behaviour

​

These youth projects were aimed at Young People, those who are vulnerable or exposed to social issues which have impacted them. We have been fortunate enough to provide funding to Phoenix Pathways to offer diversionary activities and boxing sessions for Young People at Rebel Gym

​

We have also supported young people with Food aid and Counselling sessions. We will continue to work with local Education Providers and Organisations to deliver the programmes to those who are risk at of being excluded from mainstream education. This year, the initiative saw us reaching out and supporting over 350 beneficiaries. The funding from the NVRU also allowed us to adapt to the aftermath of the COVID 19 pandemic and carry on with the provision of our work. The extended funding allowed us to become digitally equipped to provide support to our vulnerable clients. We have used this funding to source equipment to make us more accessible to our service users.

Young people in our Communities are facing some of the most complicated and exhausting range of negative influences today.  We aim to educate and enable them to deal with these issues, in a fun and lively interactive environment.
We deliver evidence-based and targeted workshops, as well as help young people to get back into education as a route to training and employment.

Workshops and Counselling in Schools.

We work with local Schools and education providers to deliver awareness and prevention workshops and provide one to one Counselling sessions for clients and young people who present with a range of issues, including those who are dealing with trauma. We also provide support to refugee children.

 

To date, we have delivered workshops on:

 

  • Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE)

  • Forced Marriages and Honour Base Violence (HBV)

  • Health and Wellbeing

  • Healthy Relationships

  • Gang Culture

  • Gun and Knife Crime

  • Grooming and Exploitation

  • Substance Misuse

  • Radicalisation and Extremism

  • Social Media and Staying Safe on Line

 

 

 

All our Staff and Volunteers are DBS checked in line with government guide lines. Al-Hurraya and our Counsellors are BACP registered.

Workshops in partnership with the Police.

We have been commissioned by The Police Crime Commissioner in Nottinghamshire PCC and Derbyshire PCC to provide counselling, mentoring and educational workshops. Part of this has been providing culturally specific workshops on:

 

  • Substance Misuse and Addiction

  • Honour Based Violence (HBV) and Arranged Marriages

  • Gang Culture and Knife Crime

  • Grooming and Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE)

  • Organised Crime

  • Radicalisation and extremism

  • Cultural Compliance and Unconcious Bias

 

These projects  include diversity schemes ( Football, Boxing, Crickets) Mentoring and Counselling

​

Working in partnership with local Education providers and business we have delivered training and Mentoring sessions which has resulted in young people with the opportunity to Volunteer and secure permanent employment. To find out when our next workshop is please contact us using the form below.
