Groundwork Stoke on Trent works with young people, predominantly male, but not exclusively, on a number of youth and employment intervention schemes. We offer a wide range of life skills training in order to ensure progression for the beneficiaries and clients into employment or further training. One of the areas of life skills and capacity building we would like to develop is working with young men who are about to become fathers for the first, and sometimes second time at a very young age. We would like to entrench sexual health advice and positive parenting skills into all the programmes mentioned earlier and to have dedicated one to one support for the first time parents, especially fathers, as this is our main client group. Part of the project will also be working with young people on our youth programmes and their parents in terms of positive parenting support.
