PLIAS Resettlement is actively involved in the community and runs a number of crime awareness/prevention workshops for children and young people in both local schools and community centres,. We also host community seminars and conferences at various times throughout the year designed to promote and contribute to community cohesion.

While we primarily work with ex-offenders and those who have experienced criminal justice, we have an invested interest in preventing crime and working with children and young people to increase their awareness of crime related issues and promote alternatives to crime.  

These workshops are available to the community and we run them at various times throughout the year. The workshops are both interactive and informative in order to make the learning content accessible to all. The content of each workshop is adapted to meet the needs of different age groups.

The topics of the workshops cover the following:

●  Crime Awareness
●  Crime Prevention
●  Fear Of Crime
●  Gun & Knife Crime
●  Race And Ethnicity Regarding Crime
●  Hate Crime
●  E safety
●  Domestic Violence
●  Conflict Resolution

We continually review and evaluate our materials and delivery methods to unsure that all the information is relevant and up-to-date. We tailor each of our programmes to meet the individual needs of the school, location or organisation we are delivering for.  

These workshops are made available to local schools, faith organisations and community centres. To find out more about these workshops, please contact us.

Please check the PLIAS Resettlement News & Events page to find out when and where workshops are due to take place.

Since our formation, we have delivered an annual seminar around issues pertaining to our work.

In October 2005 as part of Black History Month, we hosted a conference in partnership with Barnardos and Black Boys Can titled “Whose Child is it anyway?” which aimed  to raise issues around fatherhood.

In November 2006 we held a community seminar in partnership with the Brent Community Safety Partnership titled “Victims, Faith and Crime Reduction” which aimed to identify how faith based organisations can contribute to reducing the fear of crime, supporting victims of crime and supporting offenders.

The report for this seminar has been published and is available for download.
