GIFT was set up to support young people/young offenders and families into education, employment and training, through holistic intervention and prevention work, improving people's life chances. We also aim to make strategic partnerships with other charitable and statutory organisations in order to make best use of resources and deliver the most effective service.
Our main activities consist of mentoring, mediation, counselling and a supplementary education service. The majority of our work is with young people/young offenders from disadvantaged backgrounds. We aim to provide a culturally sensitive service to the local community, primarily made up of people from Black and Ethnic minority backgrounds with low educational achievement and high unemployment
