The Roots & Shoots project uses football as a 'vehicle' to guide young people to manage behaviour.
By Dawn Limbu & Kelly MorganA youth project is working to tackle antisocial behaviour brought on by the "ripple effect" of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Wiltshire Police's PC Sarah Hardwick said the programme is a great way to bring kids together and teach them life skills. Partners involved in the initiative include the Devizes Neighbourhood Policing Team, who want to make police more visible and approachable. She added that there are not many intervention and engagement schemes in the town due to the closure of youth centres and lack of funding for youth workers.Having worked in youth services for 25 years, Steve Dewar, from Wiltshire Youth for Trust, said he has seen many changes to statutory services over the years.
