Have Fun With Cooped Up Kids
A book of activities and games to do with children who are cooped up, written in pre-tech days when I was cooped up in a concrete inner London environment with young children. You don't need equipment or fancy kit. Have a 'menu' of things on offer, they never want to do the one you have in mind!
I am offering this book free to help families at this time of lockdowns.

Research Programme

Youthworks is grateful to have received a grant from the E-Nurture Network for our research with the University of Kingston. We are exploring  Vulnerability, Online Lives and Mental Health, developing a new policy model.

Safe Social Media for Children with SEN

Some young people are more at risk online than others. Our research highlighted ways in which young people with SEN could be helped to take advantage of social media safely. Adrienne is delighted to be working with Internet Matters to develop a new online resource for children, young people, parents and carers. This is an initiative by Facebook.
