Real Respect interventions use developmentally age-appropriate material. We explore how we take personal responsibility in situations where we interact with other people, with a focus upon respecting both ourselves and others. We want participants to learn how to reflect upon their choices and consequences. Most importantly, we want participants to have safe and healthy experiences with other people and we our long term strategy is to contribute to reducing problematic sexual behaviours amongst children and young people via open minded, yet safely boundaried discussion spaces. We want participants to know who their support network is should they experience any difficulties or worries they need to talk about when it comes to love, relationships and sexual activity. We work closely with school/college/referrers throughout the programme and share any safeguarding or other concerns, should we have them.
