Somerset Youth Justice Team

The Somerset Youth Justice Team works to help reduce youth offending. Most of their work is with young people aged 10 to 17 who have been arrested by the police.

They also support:

  • Parents, carers and families
  • Victims
  • Local communities

The team is made up of people with different skills, including:

  • Social workers
  • Psychologists
  • Drug and alcohol workers
  • Parenting workers
  • Restorative justice workers
  • Education workers
  • Volunteers

The team is committed to working with everyone fairly. They do not discriminate because of race, gender, sexual orientation or disability.

Their aim is to support every young person in Somerset and help them have the best possible chance to reach their potential.
