Helping young people to stay safe

Services for Young People's Positive Pathways summer activity programmes are run by qualified and experienced SfYP Youth Workers and focus on how young people aged 12-16 can stay safe, learn new skills and make informed decisions. 

The programmes involve fun activities and interactive workshops that will help young people to:

  • Improve their confidence, self-esteem and social skills
  • Be more resilient and able to overcome challenges in their lives
  • Identify and achieve their goals in life
  • Find out about other opportunities for young people in the area


All programmes are running five days a week, Monday to Friday, from 27th July to 14th August 2026 in all areas of Hertfordshire.
