• One-to-one family support.

Sev says; "We had a vast range of young people from the ages of 9 to 16, mixed, boys and girls participating in the Personal Safety Training Course.  The young people engaged well, asking many questions around the topic area.  It was obvious that they had concerns and fears on the subject and were interested in learning as much as they could on the day.  The young people particularly enjoyed the part when they got to practice the techniques they were taught and gain a greater understanding of the topic area.  Both boys and girls engaged well, even though most of them did not know each other.  Some young people brought along their younger siblings, which showed how important this type of training is for a vast group of young people and families.  The support from Selda and her team at Minik Kardes was well received and they were able to easily relate to the young people and their issues."
