The aim of Youth Beatz in the park is to provide young people aged 12 to 25 with an event they can attend with their peers in a safe environment and to gain information on a range of youth services available to them. To develop new skills, encourage and build confidence/self esteem in young people participating in the event.
Objectives:
For Young People
- Increased confidence and self esteem for
participants. - Initiate breakdown of territorialism amongst
young people by providing a range of safe
and secure events which they can attend
alongside their peers from different parts
of Nithsdale. Young people feel safe in their
own community. - Build strong and healthy relationships
amongst young people in Nithsdale. - Integration of young people at risk of
committing anti-social behaviour and
young people not at risk. This will be
done by young people participating in a
range of hands on activities as equals with
no distinction made in relation to their
backgrounds. - Give access to youth organisations allowing
them to promote services, allowing young
people to take advantage of the services and
activities that are available in Nithsdale. - Young people will have fun.
For the Community and Organisations
1. Promote youth services across Nithsdale to
young people and adults and celebrate the

3. Reduction in youth crime and anti-social
behaviour in the area whilst the events and

people in the area. We will work with
all media to try and increase the positive
publicity about young people and the work
