What's
involved?
This mentoring programme is for young people between the
age of 11 and 17 years. It helps young people to achieve
positive results in their lives through personal application
and positive personal decisions. The initiative also has
a diversionary aspect to it. We provide avenues for young
people to channel their energies on positive activities
during their out-of-school hours. The intention is that
they use these gapš or non-school hours meaningfully
and that there is a reduction in the risk of them committing
crime or becoming victims of it. |

The
Arts
Disadvantaged and disaffected youths have opportunities
to participate in and enjoy the arts. Such access is limited
for children and young people in families with low incomes.
Extra curricular activities such as dance classes and
instrument lessons, which can help childrenšs development,
are often an expense that their parents or carers cannot
afford. As a result, children from such households do
not get a chance to experience the arts. We aim to redress
this inequality. In practical terms they will have access
to facilities such as professional dance studios, recording
studios, theatres and music instruments. The idea is that
they get opportunities to participate in and benefit from
the arts in much the same way as their peers from households
with high incomes. |
