Over the past 9 months we have had the opportunity to work alongside Lynne and the team at Participation Works NW and cannot speak highly enough of the work that they and the organisation do. As a business operator within Burnley town centre, over the years we have encountered a number of challenges with ASB in particular involving groups of young people within the area.

We have found that the work, approach and activities that Lynne and her team have adopted and implemented as part of a joint initiative with the Burnley BID has been extremely successful in engaging with young adults and critically identifying wellbeing and safeguarding concerns amongst some vulnerable individuals.

Aware of the success that their past interventions have had within Burnley town centre, we look forward to the next phase of support which has now been planned and confident that this will continue to greatly support the needs of our local young people and the community.
