Stopover
A safe home and specialist support for young women.
Safety Net believes that keeping children safe is everyone’s responsibility. We all have the right to feel safe. There is nothing so awful that we can’t talk with someone about it.
Our aim is for children to feel happier, more connected and less anxious. We help increase their confidence to deal with challenging situations, participate and try new things. We offer them strategies on how to make safer choices.
Our children’s team go into schools and work with children in whole classes, small groups or 1:1. The work can involve delivering workshops on a range of topics, consulting with children to find out the issues most important to them as well as working more intensively with children through our SNAP (Safety Net Assertiveness Programme) and BRAVE (Boosting Resilience and Valuing Emotions) programmes. We also provide advice and resources to families and schools.
Jen has worked with communities and people for over 22 years, with qualifications in Community Education and Social Work, she has worked for Safety Net since 2016 championing children’s right to feel safe, know who to go to if they don’t and develop strategies to cope with life’s challenges.
