Sev Necati Training works in partnership with The Home Office & Minik Kardes


Sev Necati worked in partnership with Minik Kardes, in partnership with the Home Office around "Communities against Guns Gangs & Knives" to deliver a training programme to young girls and boys to help reduce crime and violence against them.


“As part of our Gangs/Guns/Knife crime and violence Project funded by the Home Office, Sev Necati delivered a four hour Personal Safety Workshop for young people aged 10 to 18.  


We had large group of 19 youngsters in a wide range of age group and we were amazed by the fact that Sev was able to keep them focused, interested and engaged for the duration of the whole session.  


The young people thoroughly enjoyed the practical self defence exercises, role play scenarios, discussions about keeping safe and information about organisation’s where they could go for help. This is clearly evident in their verbal feedback and in the evaluation forms they completed at the end of the session.

We are looking forward to working with Sev Necati again to deliver Personal Safety Workshop for young people.”

Selda Aygun, Minik Kardes Day Nursery, Community Development Worker

The Home Office says that, knife, gun and gang crime is wholly unacceptable and reducing it is a key priority for the government. Too many young lives are blighted by violent crime and we are committed to making our communities safer places for everyone.

The government’s has prioritised £10 million of Home Office investment into early intervention work in 2012-13, to support up to 30 areas 'most affected by gangs and youth violence'.

If you are one of these 30 areas, then please contact us, so we can work in partnership to reduce the fear of violence and violent crime.

Sev Necati Training works in partnership with Young Hackney & Hackney Quest


Sev Necati worked with a group of young females and males as part of the partnership work that she carries out extensively across London boroughs.  The young people were taught how to stay safe on the street, as well as discussion based and practical exercises in personal safety and self-defence.

“Sev ran a 2-hour girls personal safety session at Frampton Park Youth Club.  The girls learned positive ways to stay safe and confident on the streets, as well as self-defence techniques.  Sev was professional, informative and a positive facilitator who really engaged the girls well.  Thank you Sev!"
