Urban Living – Case Study

admingetto — Thu, 28 May 2015 09:04:55 +0000

Dear Sirs, Lloyd Robinson worked on a secondment with urban living from February 2009 to July 2010. During this time Lloyd performed a specialist role managing an employment training project targeted at young men ‘at risk’ or in contact with the Criminal Justice System or criminal gang activity.

Activities in this role included:

Organising and managing the training centre
Managing a core programme of activities for the trainees
Specialised mentoring with hard to reach young men
Liaison and relationship management with a number of key partners such as Local Authorities, Police and training agencies

During his time with Urban Living, Lloyd demonstrated a range of skills and abilities suited to this type of role. In particular Lloyd was able to engage with and maintain the interest and participation of young men who previously had chosen to avoid other similar activities. The success of the project hinged on Lloyd’s ability to work with the trainees for an extended period. Lloyd works with integrity and is completely committed to supporting young people to achieve better futures. This is recognised by the young people who perceived him as a positive role model and respect his credibility in this area of work. Lloyd’s skills, experience and personal integrity means that he has a considerable amount to offer in the field of employment support particularly targeted at harder to reach elements of the community. Yours sincerely, Steve Lillcy Director of programme and performance.

To Whom it May Concern

Re:- Back on Track Project

I have been working in partnership with the Back on Track Project since 31/10/2011

I have referred over 6 clients and Lloyd Robinson and his co-workers have been able to positively engage the young people in the following areas befriending mentoring and counselling

The Back on Track Project has been of great benefit to our young people as they feel that they can open up and really talk about their problems in confidence and a safe environment, with adults who are not judgemental.

Staff have accompanied me in joint home visits to introduce themselves to these young people and meet their parents in order to understand what the underlying causes of the problem are which lead to Anti-Social Behaviour and Criminal Activity. I generally find that young people are very opposed to coming along to Youth Offending Team unless there are on statutory orders. However experience has shown that young people are happy to have pre-arranged meetings within their home’s or at Yungstas office base where they can sit down relax and speak freely without interruptions or distractions. This not only gives the young person more confidence to express themselves but has allowed me extra time to continue with my overall case management.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Another kid who was causing problems who Lloyd and the team assisted in another direction. Still a long way to go but wouldn’t have been imaginable without the intervention.

Hi Simon,

Good to hear from you…… Summer is now but a distant memory!

We had a lovely card from LW and his mother thanking us for our support.

He’s started his college course (Diploma in Plastering Level 1) at South and City College and mum

told us he’s enjoying it. So thanks for your help regarding the mentoring he and his family have had from Lloyd.

Kind Regards Carol
