From Risk and Instability to Positive Change
Wright Direction has supported more than 150 young people facing challenges such as poor school attendance, involvement in crime, low confidence and difficult circumstances at home. One of the young people we worked with was missing a significant amount of school, struggling at home and becoming involved in risky behaviour.
He had started vaping, was involved in firework fights, had been carrying a knife and was subject to a Youth Offending Service order following a robbery offence. His mother was unemployed and struggling with depression.
Over six months, Wright Direction worked closely with both the young person and his mother. We met regularly, built trust and worked with everyone involved in his life, including teachers, social workers and other professionals. Together, we created a tailored support plan focused on improving behaviour, building confidence and creating more stability at home.
As a result:
- School attendance improved
- Risky behaviour reduced
- He began making safer and more positive choices
- Family relationships became stronger
- His mother secured a part-time job
- Her confidence and mental wellbeing improved
Wright Direction’s work goes beyond supporting individual young people. By helping children and families earlier, we contribute to stronger and safer communities.
