Life Limiting Behaviour Intervention and Support Programme Round 2
The programmes delivered are showing how early intervention programmes are raising awareness, increasing knowledge and having a positive impact on the prevention of young people involved in substance misuse.
The main aim of this pilot was to establish a collaborative network of local projects involved in advancing health and saving lives through a range of preventative and specialist programmes around children and young people engaging in life-limiting behaviours. The focus of the programme was on substance, although the funding recognised that other behaviours are linked to addictions, including anti-social behaviours and crime, missing school, disengaging in family life, and young motherhood, among other issues.
2,523 children and young people were supported in total
The three charities supported in year one were fortunate to be awarded funding in year two to adapt and develop their original programmes based on shared learning and seeing the impact of the work they delivered in year one.
